864 Strength + Conditioning – Constantly Varied. NO Routines. NO Ruts. Don’t be Boring!

I pray that God, the source of hope, will fill you completely with joy and peace because you trust in him. THEN you will overflow with confident hope through the power of the Holy Spirit.
-Romans 15:13

Probably the greatest tragedy of the church throughout its long and checkered history has been its constant tendency to conform to the prevailing culture instead of developing a Christian counter-culture.
-John Stott

I like people who don’t need everyone to like them.
–Live Life Happy

Friday – It’s not a rest day. Be Stronger than Yesterday.

The happiest people don’t have the best of everything, they just make the best of everything. Thankful. Grateful. Blessed.
