Dare Twenty Two: Love is Faithful

-

"I will betroth you to Me in faithfulness. Then you will know the Lord." 

Love is a choice, not a feeling.  It is an initiated action, not a knee-jerk reaction.  So many times we throw our hands up and walk away even when we still love some one when they are not willing to accept our love.  Love is stronger than this and requires more effort.  Today, regardless of whether someone is will to accept your love or not, let them know you love them even if they do not return the love.Hosea 2:20

    I find it interesting that one can say such things to a complete stranger and not realize that they too are a walking contradiction and have judged another's journey. Being new to the words of God, I have followed published works to aide my journey. . .these are not teachings-They are an account of my experiences with Him. I will pray for you as I would never wish anyone's heart to break.

    None of us are perfect-we all deal with unclean circumstances each and every day. These dealings are the things that teach us more about purity, God, obedience, His heart, etc.

    "Do not show partiality in judging; hear both small and great alike. Do not be afraid of anyone, for judgment belongs to God. Bring me any case too hard for you, and I will hear it.” Deuteronomy 1:17

Say A Little Prayer For Me

It was a busy day for The Gym as it began well before sunrise.  Lana Hofman, Erica Cobb, and Jesse Lehmen head to Chicago, IL with their coach, Chris Williamson, and The Gym support team to compete at NPC Junior Nationals.  Upon sending them off, Erica met me with a gleam in her eye and a huge smile.  "I just want Saturday to get here.  I'm feeling really good."  It was refreshing to see how pumped she was. What most people do not understand is this show is a qualifier for your Pro Card and by two weeks out; your body and mind are usually fighting themselves.  They ache, feel sick, mentally & physcially are drained, and sometimes fight to keep motivated.  It takes a lot for these competitors to compete let alone compete nationally.  I commend these athletes for their time commitment, their motivation even if they have a few doubts, and their willingness to be vulnerable in front of thousands of people.  They are some...

 VS   Electrolytes are the smallest of chemicals that are important for the cells in the body to function and allow the body to work. Electrolytes such as sodium, potassium, and others are critical in allowing cells to generate energy, maintain the stability of their walls, and to function in general. They generate electricity, contract muscles, move water and fluids within the body, and participate in myriad other activities. The concentration of electrolytes in the body is controlled by a variety of hormones, most of which are manufactured in the kidney and the adrenal glands. Sensors in specialized kidney cells monitor the amount of sodium, potassium, and water in the bloodstream. The body functions in a very narrow range of normal, and it is hormones like renin (made in the kidney), angiotensin (from the lung, brain and heart), aldosterone (from the adrenal gland), and antidiuretic hormone (from the pituitary) that keep the electrolyte balance within those normal lim...
