I had asked my oldest son to take a bike ride with me. He was eager to go until we began the trek and he realized that the route we were taking required him to go up a hill to get home.
But my life is worth nothing to me unless I use it for finishing the work assigned me by the Lord Jesus–the work of telling others the Good News about the wonderful grace of God. Acts 20:24
Then Jesus said to his disciples, “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me. Matthew 16:24
Victory, my friends, is Ours!
Who we are in Christ, is Victorious!

I really needed your upbeat and encouraging message today, Jaime. Thank you.
Jaime Wiebel says
Thank you so much, Michelle. I am glad you are here.
Michelle says
I attended church for the first time in years on Sunday. The enemy attached that afternoon and boy did it take me for a loop. Glad to know I"m not alone in the thoughts you expressed.
Jaime Wiebel says
I am glad to hear you made the decision to go. I know it has been on your heart and you have been in my prayers. The enemy knows where he can get it. Sadly, we are not as complicated as we think. Don't let that sidetrack you what what you have had on your heart. The lies are not from God. He has only come to set you free. Amen! Glad you stopped by this week and thanks for sharing with us.

Laughing at a free pass on the express lane. Sometimes those hills are hard, but oh how rewarding as we ride back down.
Enjoyed your words this morning.
Thanks for the link-up.
Jaime Wiebel says
The blessings God has waiting for us after the climb are totally worth it. The journey with my little guy was certainly worth the bike trip. Glad you are here, Debbie. Thanks for the encouragement.
Beth says
Agreed, Jaime! Life is full of these kinds of challenges, but with Christ's strength in us, we can climb that big and daunting hill. Thanks for the inspiring truth today and for hosting the linkup, my friend!
Jaime Wiebel says
Christ's strength in us. I think many Christians think the power is reserved for God. But He is in us and is willing to give s the power we need to accomplish the task. Thanks for stopping ev every week to share your posts with us here, Beth.

I hear those same lies, Jaime! I used to spend way too much time entertaining them,too! I'm still not where I would like to be in replacing the lies with Truth, but I am so very thankful for how far I have come! I'm also thankful for you!!!♥
