1. God initiates - God initiates as in the process of creation, guidance or intervention. 2. Man responds - when God initiates, humans respond with faith and devotion. 3. Christ reconciles - Jesus Christ bridges the gap between humanity and God.

Every action depends on three forces—one to start it, one to oppose it, and one to bring it into balance. Without that third force, nothing is fully completed. Matthew 18:20 "Where two or three are gathered... there am I in the midst."

Recognize your own efforts and see how far you’ve come to where you were a year ago. Never compare your life to the lives of others; they will never have the same experiences as you, therefore comparing is pointless.

Proverbs 3:5-6 "Trust in the Lord and He shall direct thy paths"
