Lesson #18 &19

What you don't use, you lose!



When you don't a muscle, it shrinks! My leg muscles are shrunk to half their normal size. And it took no time for it to happen. Wow! This has to be true in all other areas of life. To keep things razor sharp, they have to be used, trained and improved!

Do everything you can to remember!

History has a way of repeating itself. Look at the economy today. It resembles the Great Depression. How did we get here again? There are many theories and ideas. It is human nature to go from organized to complete disarray. One day we have it together and then we lose site of our ultimate goal and then we fall off the wagon. Mark my words, years from now, we will be in this same kind of economic problem again. It will happen!

The only way to learn from the storms of life is to do all you can to remember what happened and what you learned along the way. I have kept this journal to document all of my thoughts and feelings as life progresses out from Aug 9, 2008. The only way for me to look back and see what God has done is to keep track of it. So, if you don't want to repeat mistakes or if you want to grow in character, then you have to be able to remember things.....so when the storms hit, do all that you can to remember where you are, where you are going and where you have come. As I look back over this blog, I am reminded of all the great things I have conquered through the power of Jesus Christ!
