The world Olympics are every four years. The race of life is daily. The athletes prepare to compete in the trials they are from (USA/state) to represent their country. Olympic trials are held in various states for different events.

On the other hand humanity deals with a daily race which is every day. Life starts by waking up eyes open, lungs working. Breath. Life with our health issues. Some of us deal with cancer treatment, or diabetes. Others of us deal with neurological issues and various parts of our anatomy which have unique issues. Each of us just need to run our race the best way we can. We can prepare and train by maintaining our bodies with daily vitamins and minerals. The gamble is yours by maintaining your nutrition and all that entails your training or preparations as an individual sees fit.

BIBLE BOOK Proverbs 16:33[NLT]

We may throw the dice,^[a]
    but the Lord determines how they fall.

God created us with a unique anatomy. My anatomy struggles neurologically with a disease named CADASIL.

God created this disease but He has used the NIH to do research on brain diseases. Federal funding exists for now to help scientist develop treatments to alleviate patients and future generations living with this disease. Stroke life symptoms till Jesus takes me home. I will live out His plan and purpose for my life. Testify to others that my God has allowed me to maintain me cognitive ability and speech to testify about His daily miracles in my life. The ability to walk and talk with cognitive ability is my daily miracle. Don’t take the breath of life for granted. He provides lungs to breath, and to wake up with functional lungs is my daily miracle which I don’t take for granted. Today my lungs, they work and I will rejoice in the Lord, my Creator! Vision I don’t take for granted, the ability to open my eyes with the ability to see where I walk. Walk and talk to testify about it all. Remember don’t take life for granted. Today is the day of Salvation! Accept Jesus as Savior and accept eternal life. It’s not just about your physical anatomy. It’s you soul!

Matthew 5:13-16 New Living Translation

Teaching about Salt and Light

¹³ “You are the salt of the earth. But what good is salt if it has lost its flavor? Can you make it salty again? It will be thrown out and trampled underfoot as worthless.

¹⁴ “You are the light of the world—like a city on a hilltop that cannot be hidden. ¹⁵ No one lights a lamp and then puts it under a basket. Instead, a lamp is placed on a stand, where it gives light to everyone in the house. ¹⁶ In the same way, let your good deeds shine out for all to see, so that everyone will praise your heavenly Father.

Let’s just do it!

Walking by faith doesn’t come easy. It just doesn’t. There are days when I ask myself “Today will be different, right?” How about waking up with a determination that the day will be different! Can you wake up to a different mindset? Can you wake up and start the day with a surrendered heart? Today I will serve the Lord no matter what happens. God, I don’t know how but I know that He will help me as I go through chaos.

Health issues, finances and so much may overwhelm you, but your not alone through all of it. Did you know that? God is present through ALL of it. Oh, ya and God is in control of all of it. He is the God of the universe. He’s not blind to your day. He created us to be His dependents. Children of God, you believe in His Son Jesus Christ you are a child of God. He doesn’t change His mind. We change our mind through circumstances. It’s difficult to forgive, yet we are forgiven. How easily we forget that once we confess our sins and ask Christ to forgive us. We need to do the same. Forgive others because we are forgiven. Our humanity holds grudges. Forgiveness doesn’t happen overnight when our heart breaks from being hurt. Co-workers, family, and friends. Salvation changes that. Once Christ dwells in our hearts we stride to become more like Him. We represent Him to people who don’t know Him. We testify about Him because tell others of our new heritage. We have royalty status, sons and daughters of a King. Ambassadors, for Christ Jesus. Representatives of His Kingdom. Crazy isn’t it?

Don’t forget that family and friends are on this journey with you! Pray for them if you can’t talk to them. Pray that God will change their heart and mindset Allow them in your day, share the Good News by living out your life. The God who created you for a plan and purpose

Humans need each community. COVID-19 people were fearful of being in community. Some chose isolation out of fear. How about middle ground? Hot or cold, lukewarm is not an option. The choices are being all in or not. Do you say to yourself, “Maybe I’ll change my mind latter when I have to.” Will you wait until your your death bed? Religion? No it’s not religion it’s relationship.

God loves you and His Son Jesus bridged the gap between humanity and God. This blog has me testifying about Him. He is the only way for eternal life. Today is the day for Salvation.
