Inspiring Quotes from Tabitha:
“It’s amazing how God can use technology and our words there to express His power – just as He does in face-to-face communication.”
“We have been deceived into thinking that numbers equals influence.”
“Truly, the abundant life is just less of me and more of Jesus.”
“We’ve gotten it wrong and equated abundance to our external circumstances – our possessions, lack of suffering, etc. But, truly, true abundance comes on the inside.”
“As a stay-at-home mom, the more I’m serving the people around me, the more abundant my life feels because of what God is doing in and through that service.”
“You want to know why there is so much heartache and suffering and why people can’t get along with one another? Because we have not yet gotten over ourselves.”
“Comparison and offense come from a place of not truly knowing the other person as a person.”
“Find the place where you can truly champion other people.”
“We always say that Instagram is a highlight reel, and yet I wonder – do we actually live as if we truly realize that is all it is?”
“When we are always living in a reactive, protective, defensive posture, it becomes really hard for us to get back into the ring and find victory. And God has empowered us already to not live a life of defensiveness.”
“There are bigger, more important fights to be fought than over whether or not so-and-so vaccinates.”
