Finding Faith Through Life's Emotional Motocross
One of the great things I love about racing motocross is the incredible amount of personal dialogue. I mean I literally go through every emotion I think in a weekend of racing. Fear, pain, excitement, anger, joy, hope and doubt. But what’s always great is because of these emotions, high or low, it really keeps me focused on my faith in The Lord. I pray for his safety, the strength to ride strong, the wisdom to make good decisions and His grace on my heart to have compassion and love for my competitors. And you know what? God delivers. Now I’m not saying that my prayers result in wins every time. Not at all. What I’m saying is God calms me and make me focused on doing my very best and leaving the rest to him. Because let’s face it, He has control over our story, we are just called to be willing participants. And you know what? I can handle and adversity that gets thrown my way, because He is with me. He’s with you too. You can handle any adversity knowing that you win in the end. You can endure financial, physical, and emotional hardships cheerfully knowing that the game will be reset and you will start over in heaven. Your body will be restored to the perfection God originally intended. The entire world will be re-created without any lap traffic, evil, sickness, or death.That to me my friends is God’s Grace. “Not that I am speaking of being in need, for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content. I know how to be brought low, and I know how to abound. In any and every circumstance, I have learned the secret of facing plenty and hunger, abundance and need. I can do all things through him who strengthens me.”Philippians 4:11-13 Have a groovy Monday!Peace,

Before I Knew It
We may never see the results of the seeds we plant, but that doesn't mean they don't matter. Faith the size of a mustard seed moves mountains. Commit your work to the Lord and trust the process.

More Than Enough
Jesus doesn't need the sharpest tool in the shed. Two fish and five loaves, a shepherd's stick, whatever you've got, is more than enough. The Lord specializes in turning failures into successes.

In the Majority
If God is for us, who can be against us? A jealous God asks for our faithfulness in return, and gives us a friend who sticks closer than a brother. If God is on our side, we're in the majority.
