864 STRONG – YOU MATTER.

“You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’ But I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lustful intent has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
-Matthew 5:27-28

The more people rationalize cheating, the more it becomes a culture of dishonesty. And that can become a vicious, downward cycle. Because suddenly, if everyone else is cheating, you feel a need to cheat, too.
-Stephen Covey

“In this present crisis, government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem.”
-Ronald Reagan, First Inaugural Address, Jan. 20, 1981

You either live a self directed life or a God directed life. Your choice. There is no in between.

If YOU don’t support your community – who will?

Nutrition Tip: Your grocery list should include plenty of fat. Stock your refrigerator and pantry with real whole food, including fat-rich options like avocados and eggs. Try to add natural fat rather than avoid it.

SMILE!
Smile and wave boys. Just smile and wave. What else can you do? Are you giving MORE than you take?

The strongest (mentally and physically) are the ones that just show up each day prepared to do hard work even if they don’t know what the workout consist of. STRONG or SOFT? Your choice. Hit it hard or move over! Be STRONG!

Social Media tip of the day: Not everything that pops into your head needs to end up on Facebook.
Take a look around. Take a close look at the post you see today. Social media has infected the world with a sickening virus called vanity. Look at me. Please look at me! Have the wisdom to show restraint. –Proverbs 23:4
