Often we are faced with the challenge of making the Right choice not the Easy choice. The Right choice is usually clear and it always aligns us with God’s word. Making the right choice might not be the popular choice and it might put you in an uncomfortable situation, but it will be a choice that you can live with every day knowing that you did what was right.

We must ask God to give us a special awareness and a renewed commitment to his calling upon our lives so that we can walk courageous and strong in the midst of a world that is always looking for the easy way out.

The Strength of a person willing to do whats Right usually includes:
- A person of his word.
- Sensitive to those in need.
- A keen sense of responsibility, integrity.
- A successful and shrewd businessman/women.

Lessons:
- It can be heroic to do what must be done and to do it right.
- God often uses little decisions to carry out his BIG plan.

God Bless You and Do what’s right not easy today!

After a two year search and lot’s of emotional changes, we found this 5.2 acre piece of land to host our Outreach Camps for “high risk” single girls. The emotional choices were that in order to make this move, we would uproot our families and sell our home so that we could afford this piece of land.

We can relate to the story of Peter when he gets out of the boat to meet Jesus. (See Below)

Jesus comes to the disciples, walking on the water. This terrifies the disciples and they think they are seeing a ghost. Jesus tells them in (Matt 14, Mark 6, Luke. 28) “Take courage! It is I. Don’t be afraid.”
Peter replies, “Lord, if it’s you, tell me to come to you on the water.” So Jesus invites Peter to come. Peter gets out of the boat and begins walking on the water toward Jesus. But when Peter takes his eyes off Jesus and sees the wind and waves, he begins to sink. Peter cries out to the Lord and Jesus immediately reaches out his hand and catches Peter. As they climb into the boat together, the storm ceases. Then the disciples worship Jesus, saying, “Truly you are the Son of God.”

Five years ago, we answered the call and founded this Outreach Ministry. We decided that no matter the cost, we were going to walk in faith, a walk that reminds us that God’s ways are not our ways, but his way is awesome and complete!

My Christian Life Coach Business has officially been launched.. Come check us out at:

www.visiongoingforward.com

I’ve been looking for ways to continue my efforts towards making a difference in the World! I think I found another way to help people grow their knowledge and understanding of who God is and can be in their lives.

With that in mind, I decided to complete my training as a “Professional Christian Life Coach”. I am now prepared and trained to help people overcome the things in life that would keep them from growing, changing and truly understanding how to overcome the fears that keep us trapped.

Christ wants us to have an abundant life that contains peace, joy, balance and fulfillment. Some of us are content with just existing, never really exploring the possibilities of fullfilling and or exploring the many opportunities we have in Christ.

My Professional Christian Life Coaching business will be designed to help those who are struggling with change and or are fearful and can’t seem to move specific things in their life forward. With God’s help and some Christian Coaching, I know that being STUCK in a Rut will be a thing of the past.

Keep a look out for my new business:

God Bless You -

It was my 4:30am when I started the research on this passage and came upon this commentary and verses; I think the storyline is powerful and it certainly comes at a good time as we all make a decision to start the New Year off victoriously!

If we are struggling with the temptation of sin and we choose not to change our ways, we will eventually find ourselves in a very bad situation. Sin does that.

Great is your faithfulness!” Dare to believe. God is on the Throne!

Read this story and remember that in God there is forgiveness and a fresh new start!

Running The Christian Race - Heb 12 vs. 1

The Christian life has been compared to a race. It’s not like a short sprint that requires a sudden burst of energy and then it’s over. It is more like a marathon which is long and at times painful.

The Author in Hebrews reminds us that in this race we need to get rid of the things that will hinder us and the sin that so easily entangles us. (Heb 12 -1)

Why Do We Fail To Follow Christ?

Why Do We Fail to Follow Christ when he wants to bless us.. Luke 9: 57,58 (Deny yourself and follow him) Self Interest Continues to over shadow doing God’s Will.

In this passage Luke 9: 57, 58 the people who said they wanted to follow Christ couldn’t’ stop worrying about things and wanted to do other things first but doing those things may have prevented them from doing God’s Will which is why Christ said to let the dead bury the dead or why he said to leave your families and follow me.

You’ve heard the phrase before it’s almost cliche but I have to say it, “We have to step out of our comfort zones.” I believe that God is asking many of us to step out in faith and give him a chance! What do you have to lose? While it’s easy to focus on the spiritual implications of this we must realize that stepping out and taking calculated risks are an integral part of life. God doesn’t call us to step out only in matters of faith but in matters of the heart as well. God is interested in us as a whole person not just the spiritual stuff. But how do you know which risks to take or how to step out? This is the beauty of experiencing life with God.
