Philippians 4:8-9

whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. 9Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.

Living Full Throttle!!

I'm on day 8 of my 30 day challenge. Today I am contemplating the "motorcross track" of life, the bumps, turns, curves and the crashes. We will crash/fail in life, its just a matter of when. But there is hope!!!!

The greatest power we need in our lives is the power to begin again(after a "crash") God is the God of second chances, and He wants to give us the power to begin again. It's not just the power for a fresh start; it's also the power to get back on the track and go faster than ever before!

The chapter focuses on 3 lessons that emerge from Peters crash site. Peter completely wiped out, he denied even knowing Jesus..not one time, but three times...I can't even imagine the way he felt. Yet God gave him the power to begin again....
Yay for second chances!!

I just want to share with you three things are so true & relevant to my life right now:
1. Because of Gods love for me, Failure is NEVER final or FATAL
2. Because of Gods grace, I can release my guilt and move forward
3. Because of who God is, I can surrender to God's strength

All I can end with is PRAISE GOD FOR SECOND CHANCES!!!
