864 STRONG – Gunny’s Blog / Thursday 07.21.2022

864 STRONG – You Matter! The people around you today matter.

You can enter God’s Kingdom ONLY through the narrow gate. The highway to hell is broad, and its gate is wide for the many who choose that way. But the gateway to life is very narrow and the road is difficult, and only a few ever find it.
-Matthew 7:13-14

When the believer is faced with a decision regarding a questionable matter, he should never proceed unless he has complete peace about it. If there is nothing wrong with it, then God is able to give complete peace.
-Curtis Hutson

SMILE!
Smile and wave boys. Just smile and wave.

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

Drama does not just walk into your life. Either YOU create it, invite it, or associate with it. Don’t complain about it if you are the one driving the drama bus.

The better you feel about yourself, the less you feel the need to show off. Be yourself. Be Happy.

You either live a self directed life OR a God directed life. Your choice. There is no in between. There is no almost. Don’t convince yourself otherwise.

If WE don’t support OUR community – what will happen to it?

Nutrition Tip: Gym time is important. Kitchen time is just as important. Don’t miss the benefits of your hard training by neglecting your nutrition.
