Romans 12:12 -> In what area of your life are you struggling the most right now? Ask yourself … Is my life full of joy and hope? Am I leaning into Jesus in difficult times? When the going gets most tough, am I deeply devoted to prayer? Sometimes … life is just plain hard. Be patient. God hasn’t abandoned you. He knows your circumstances … better than you. Ask the Lord to seek His wisdom, to help you find paths towards Him … not away from Him. Your hope comes from confidence in Christ. #KeysGodKeys

Always a good day when I see some of my old Dawgs on campus. Congrats to Anthony Odunsi, the newest member of the @HCUAthletics Hall of Honor. #DawgsUp

Psalm 46:10 -> We often spend so much time asking God to speak that we forget to stop long enough to listen. Being still isn’t about doing nothing; it’s about intentionally slowing down long enough to remember who God is and to reflect on His faithfulness in our lives. When was the last time you intentionally slowed down and reflected on who God is? Set aside a few quiet moments to thank Him for His faithfulness and simply rest in His presence. #KeysGodKeys

John 6:11 -> What we cannot do … Christ can, and does. The impossible task of feeding 5,000 people became the unforgettable miracle of 5,000 people having been fed. The problems we face are opportunities for the Lord to show his power, strength and glory. Hand them over to Him. #KeysGodKeys

Luke 6:32-33 / Romans 12:18 / Colossians 3:14 -> Few things in sports create a stronger sense of identity than putting on your team’s jersey. We cheer for our team, celebrate victories, and maybe enjoy a little bantering back and forth. It’s important to remember that we can enjoy the rivalry without allowing the rivalry to control how we treat people. Our team jersey may tell people which team we support, but our actions should show whom we serve. Love your team. Enjoy the rivalry. Compete fiercely. But love your rival, too. The final score will eventually be forgotten. The way we treated another person may be remembered much longer. And that’s a victory that transcends the scoreboard. #KeysGodKeys

Proverbs 11:30 / Acts 20:24 / 2 Corinthians 5:18 -> Who first told you the Good News? Someone passed it on to you. Now it’s your responsibility — your mission — to pass it on to others. Telling people about Jesus is a mark of spiritual maturity. Is anyone going to be in heaven because of you? Whether you’ve been a Christian 30 years, 30 days, or 30 minutes … Jesus wants you to tell others about him. Share with everyone about God’s grace and the salvation He has gifted you. #KeysGodKeys

Romans 8:28 -> God weaves effort, obedience, frustration, redirection, and waiting together for good … often in ways we cannot see. Every season in our life, the good, the bad, the in-between … sharpens our judgment, patience, and awareness. Preparation pays dividends … but not always on demand. God works through preparation, not as a vending machine or genie in a bottle … but as a master craftsman. Faith isn’t passive optimism—it’s cooperative trust. Faith is staying engaged when the progress feels invisible. Faith is doing the work while God connects the dots. Faith is staying engaged when the results lag well behind the effort. Prepare. Practice. Pay attention. God most often does His deepest work long before He reveals the outcome. #KeysGodKeys
