You Win Some, You Lose Some

Both Clemson and Carolina football teams lost this weekend and there are some disappointed fans (me for one). We all know the saying, "You win some, you lose some." So it is with the history of this world. Satan and his followers, as well as the natural circumstances of mortal life, will inflict many bruises and win many battles. We're all going to fail, sometimes more than once. But as long as we're on God's team, we're on the winning side and we know we will have victory. For this I am thankful!  Happy Sunday!

God's Best

I have to admit that sometimes I miss God’s best by playing it safe and being satisfied with good enough. But this only leaves me depressed and unsatisfied. 

“How many times have you wanted to do something, plan something or even dare to dream, but you were too afraid?” You know deep within that your torment isn’t right. You know you’re missing out on life and opportunities, but you’re too scared to do anything about it. 

What if the one situation we're clinging to is the last piece of the puzzle, but He can’t get His hands there to shift it into place because we won’t move ours?

Sadly, most people stay in the safety of their comfort zone their entire lives and then wonder why life seems so empty, miserable, and dull. They go through life missing opportunities because they’re afraid to really live the way God intended. 

What’s Christ response to all of this? “O man of little faith. Why do you doubt Me?"

Blessings,

Our Creator's Glorious Creation

Celebrate all the good things that God has given you and your family....

Sometimes life can get so overwhelming, and I personally get lost in the business of balancing all of the responsibilities I have. It’s a wonderful gift from God to spend some time away from your worries and distractions and get to spend time with your family, refocusing your heart and your mind. 

This past week my family and I spent a glorious week at Indian Rocks Beach, Florida. I hope you enjoy what I’ve captured and will be blessed by what our Creator has designed for our pleasure. 

Blessings,
