Power of Prayer - The Most Valuable Dialogue of Your Life
It’s the most powerful weapon on Earth. It can turn the impossible to the possible in a matter of seconds. Yet, few people even Christians seem to take advantage of this free, priceless commodity. The name of this mighty weapon you may ask? Prayer: The act of conversing with God; the intercourse of the soul with God, not in contemplation or meditation, but in direct address to him. If it’s not the constant bombardment of the media focusing only on negativity, it’s the monotony of our daily life which causes many to forget this simple task at our fingertips.

Slow Leak
I recently just had 4 new tires put on my mini van but soon
afterwards, I noticed the front passenger tire kept losing air.
Each time air was added to it, it would soon leak out again.
This was a call for action, time to take it back to the garage
and let them tell me what I didn't want to hear. I had run over
a tiny nail somewhere and now my tire was no longer good
as new. But, after a small plug was inserted it is now back
to it's original state, holding air and just like new again. I
realized this is alot like our Christian walk. Is yours leaking?

Sole Work - Walking the Spiritual Path
For the past several years I have struggled with getting (and staying) fit. Ok I admit it, the struggle has been longer than just a few years. As a kid, instead of playing nicely with the girls, I fought with the neighborhood boys. I attempted to join their fun and received new scars weekly in bloody games of soccer. I was always the last one picked to play on the kickball team and, as the catcher of my 5th grade softball team, I pummeled the pitcher in the head with a fast ball. Uncoordinated in team sports, I succeeded only at baton twirling which was fun but I barely broke a sweat. After failures in group sports I thought I'd try running so, a few years ago I attempted to train for a half marathon. I ended up limping home in tears and thought I’d never exercise again. (I couldn't even MOVE after that, much less exercise!)
