How strong is your support system?
Having presence, no matter the circumstance, makes things better and big things seem small. For there is comfort in having a supportive presence from another. Wanting to also add to your support system is God. For He promises that if you "call on [him]...[he] will answer...and be with [you] in trouble" (Psalm 91:15) or any time that you need someone to lean on. So, if in need of support or want to build a strong support system, might you look no further, as He will always be present for you. #AlwaysAvailable

What voices do you recognize, understand, and respond to?
You are surrounded by many voices; and it is when you begin to discern them, through understanding, that you gravitate to them. A voice that has the ability draw you near, is the "gatekeeper" (John 10:3). For He offers comfort, peace and encouragement, and much more, to those who allow themselves to listen to Him; and if you do, He will help and guide you. Furthermore, with time, your relationship will grow as you continue to listen and obey His voice (see 10:3-4). #AFamiliarVoice

How can you support your leaders?
Leading is no easy task, as leaders are pulled, often, in different directions; held responsible for many, unseen, tasks; and ultimately, the bottom line. In order to help your leaders to lead well and succeed, you are called to pray for "all those in authority" (1 Timothy 2:2). So, as you take in to consideration a leader's roles and responsibilities, might you pray for them, and often, so that they can do their job and do it to the best of their abilities. #PrayForOurLeaders

Why continue to gather?
Shutting yourself off from the world and others only makes the distance further and the isolation even more difficult, as you deal, alone, with the pain and hurt. Instead, Hebrews encourages you to "not [give] up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but [encourage] one another" (10:25); and to, also, "spur one another toward love and good deeds" (10:24). The hard times will pass; but while they are around, might you continue to remain connected with others to help you get through it. #StayEngaged #BeLoved & #RemainHopeful

What makes you believe?
Skeptics exist, even when presented with facts and eye witnesses. Faced with doubters, while He was alive, and even more so after he died and rose again, was Jesus. Validating His death and rebirth was Mary Magdalene, as she witnessed the empty tomb; and shortly thereafter, was approached, unknowingly, by Jesus telling her to "not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He is not here; he has risen, just as he said” (Matthew 28:5–6). So, before you doubt and dismiss anything, especially Him, might you, first, consider the facts. #HeIsRisen

How passionate are you? & What can your passion accomplish and offer?
Passionate people are relentless, no matter the obstacles or odds. Showing His passion for us, "sheep that have gone astray" (Isaiah 53:6), was Jesus, as he "was pierced for our transgressions" and "crushed for our iniquities"; and through such "punishment", "brought us peace" and healing (53:5). So, may your passion leave a mark wherever you go and watch how it spreads and grows. #RemainInfectious & #Contagious

What sacrifices are you willing to make?
Very few will sacrifice for something better; and even fewer, if any, will sacrifice for another. Fortunately, someone "suffered once for [our] sins, the righteous for the unrighteous" (1 Peter 3:8), as He died "for all" (Hebrews 10:10 ESV). So, as you consider such a sacrifice, on this Good Friday, might you, at least, give thanks for His selflessness and great love for you; and be willing to sacrifice for the right things. #WorthIt

How well do you lead?
A true and effective leader leads by their actions. Doing just that was Jesus, as he, first, "[washed his] disciples' feet (John 13:5), setting an example for them to do so as he did for them (see 13:15). Then, later, He went on "and gave up his spirit" (19:30) for you and me. And, the only thing that He asks in return is for you to "love one another", just "as [he has] loved you" (13:34). So, may your actions speak volumes and resonate like His does. #LeadByExample & #WithLOVE

How fruitful are you? & If so, what fruit do you produce?
What may look good, at first, may not necessarily look so good with time, as first impressions can be blinding. Seen in the same way was a fig tree. From a "distance", "he went to find out if it had any fruit the fig tree in leaf had any fruit" (Mark 11:13), which did not. For having no fruit, Jesus caused the tree to wilt after telling it: "may no one ever eat fruit from you again" (11:14). Seeing how appearances, words too, can be deceiving and fruitless, may whatever fruit you bear be fruit that is produced in all seasons. #TheFruitOfTheSpirit

What keeps you in line?
The "basics" will keep you grounded and get you through most anything as they are the simplest and most important facts, ideas, or things connected to something; and veering from them can prove unfavorable. Missing the basics, not "[knowing] the Scriptures or the power of God" (Matthew 22:29), were religious leaders who tried to tear Jesus down by fabricating a story about a woman that was widowed seven times (see 22:23-28). So, in order to avoid being "in error" (22:29), might you stick to the basics. #KIS
