SPORTS:

I truly enjoyed playing Hockey back in H.S., now I can enjoy watching a LIVE "Chicago Blackhawks" game any day, now that there's no one to play hockey with.

In the summer, I play Badminton and sometimes Volleyball. (Love it!). Gotta take advantage of the short Summer months! The Winter is LONG!

I can enjoy watching a Basketball Game. I can sit through a Football and/or Soccer Game (I may be a bit bored, but I can sit through it). Baseball (Totally not for me..I pass).

FAVORITE BIBLE STORY: The Prodigal Child

FAVORITE BIBLE PASSAGE: "...For the Lord who began the good work in you will bring it to to completion at the day of Jesus Christ." Phil. 1:6 Many times in our Christian walk, we stumble and sometimes we stumble in the same exact place, repeating the same mistakes against our will. Sometimes, I feel like throwing my hands up and cannot help but feel hopeless and weary...and I feel like giving up!

But, this verse restores my confidence in God. Because it is a PROMISE to me that He will NEVER leave me or GIVE UP on me, He's not looking at me as a FAILURE and as one impossible to reach. Knowing that He will NOT quit on me, regardless of my repeated stumbles, then I cannot give up on Him...

There's nothing left to do and nowhere else to go but FIGHT to win and fight to the FINISH...because no matter what I'm going through, HE is working in me. Though I may feel like I'm running in place without my feet touching ground, the fact that I'm still breathing and among the living is living proof of His Unfailing, Unregrettable, Unchanging, Unconditional & Faithful Word.

When I don't feel Him working in me, my faith in His Word keeps my spirit strong...Though I find myself looking through a tunnel with a darkness that seems to have no end, He is with me, He will not leave me, He will continue to work with and IN me. With Him on my side, I am beyond certain that the LIGHT of VICTORY, so invisible to me now will be reached and beheld in His time...not mine... if I simply continue to trust in the Lord and His Faithful Word!
