I apologize in advance if there r some spelling errors it's gettin late lol!
The last few weeks have been really good for me! Football has been picking up rather smoothly especially after our last game against the redskins! But the main thing that makes these last couple weeks great is the growth I'm experiencing with my relationship with God! It's amazing what God will reveal to you if you just engage yourself in seeking him through his word! I had the chance to see the movie courageous with my mom the other week! It was a great movie! But what I took from it was that if my soul purpose here on earth is to glorify God, then I'm going to have to be courageous and stand bold in what I believe in! Repenting and believing is a daily thing we have to do. (Mark 1:15 surrendering and acknowledging that im a sinner and then turning away from sin as i give God total control and believing that I'm only saved by the grace of God and that my weaknesses are strengthened in Him. We cant build our faith in God with out getting to know him, which is why we need to digest the word of God as much as we can so that we can be directed in the path that God has for us. When u find yourself in the will of God... U will start to see that the people and paths that u once knew begin to change for the good! Romans 12:2 tells us to be transformed by the renewing of our minds meaning that our mind set everyday has to be renewed! We r all sinners only God can give us the strength and wisdom to live the life he has called us for.. Which is to glorify Him in boldness. (Ephesians 3:12). We need refreshment in God daily because the devil is working daily against us! in our team bible study this week josh Vaughn a team mate of mine ended our session with this verse which was really encouraging!! "The LORD is my light and my salvation;
Whom shall I fear?
The LORD is the defense of my life;
Whom shall I dread? When evildoers came upon me to devour my flesh,
My adversaries and my enemies, they stumbled and fell. Though a host encamp against me,
My heart will not fear;
Though war arise against me,
In spite of this I shall be confident". (Psalm 27:1-3 NASB)
All God wants us to do is believe and receive ! Knowing what's right is nothing if u don't believe it!!
