Yes Sir!!


I had a very good conversation with my wife the other day about the importance of Joy in ones life. I came to a very reocurring revelation about the importance of Joy and how strong it is within the human spirit. Where are we finding our Joy today? You should always know that you are the Joy of the Lord and that he delights in you greatly! So i dont know if that helps you at all but if you are having a hard time trying to find your Joy, just know that Jesus is there just longing to give people their Joy back! You just gotta ask. You Are Joy!!

Getting the Job Done


there are those times in life when we just have a goal that must be accomplished in order for us to reach a certain pennicle that we have set for ourselves. Of course when these goals are set we are very positive and upbeat about them, and its very possible that we are able to stay that way for a while. But almost always before the end of that goal we begin to doubt, we begin to not really give all of our selves to the cause at hand. And in turn we become weak! But you know what, its those times that you yourself really see what you are constructed of. Are you the person who will allow yourself to fall back in a spirit of timidity, or the kind who wont. We can recognize the ones who dont, by the way they simply buckle down and get the Job done. Those are the kind of people who rise to the occasion, perhaps not in a way that is noticeable until finished. But it gets done none the less. And when accomplished they are strengthened, and guess what, when they are strengthened everyone around them now has the ability to become stong. Lets be the people who get the Job done so that the world around us can have the possibility to become strong.

Jesus has been teaching me lots of things ever since i have asked him to, and a major one in my life has been humility. Humility, thats a hard word to say and an even harder one to grasp and accept. I suppose that is why i like CrossFit so much. every time i enter through that garage door i realize what is about to happen, no ifs ands or butts, I am about to be humbled. Whether it is tequnique or the fact that i'm just not strong enough to finish a WOD the way i had envisioned, I will be humbled. that is a good question for all you readers out there today, are you walking in humility? i am so grateful to be involved in an occupation that is surrounded by people who dont mind learning a little humility simply to paint a better picture of their life. Also i appreciate everyone out there for the help of keeping me that way also, and i am truly sorry for the times i am not. please have a joy filled day!

we have now officialy moved gyms and are very happy with the change. we have alot of other changes on the way that are also very exciting, but you cant move forward and enjoy it with out looking back at where you came from. we started out small, and in all consideration are still small, but great big things are on the way, i might not know or understand what they are, but i am willing to embrace the future with open arms. let us continue to move forward with all boldness and ever increase our strength and endurance, so that when the times come around where we must fight through the pain to go on to new heights and fortitudes, we simply will be able to!
