This morning I searched online for “synonyms for reliance.” I was looking for them so I could use them in what I was writing. This is how it turned out.

Reaching for reliance is powerful. It will help you be Christ-connected and see with His compassion:

Choosing to courageously step out in daily dependence and reliance that the living Jesus will literally demonstrate His presence and power (instead of believing in our own effort, abilities, and resources) is an act of faith that shows that we trust Him to do what He said He will do. That act prepares the way for the Lord to show up and show out in, though, and around us. Reliance on the risen Jesus keeps us Christ-connected instead of self-directed and gives us Christ-directed eyes that see with His compassion. Then we are moved to “Do whatever He tells you.” (John 2:5.)

Cultivate continual Christ-connection and always be an intimate part of His family. A Jesus-directed assembly of open human hearts is amazingly beautiful, grand, and glorious. It releases revelation and miracles to those who enter in. (Hebrews 10:25.)
