Our Foundational Scripture

Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, making the best use of the time, because the days are evil. (Ephesians 5:15–16 ESV)

What is Self-sabotage?

The reason why you self-sabotage is that it allows you to predict what is going to happen, which gives you the illusion of self-control.

One source shared this, There is The Illusion of Control Through Self-Sabotage, Because this form of self-control, albeit negative, reassures...

 My Before and After

I know someone else needs to hear this. I'm praying as I'm typing that it will help you and you won't give up on your health and fitness goals.

It's hard for me to be vulnerable and share my before photo. To be honest, I don't have many old photos because I threw them away. I was horrified by pictures back then. 

This picture on the left is me before God. I was only 25. I had never worked out consistently, didn't know how to eat healthy, and I was miserable in my skin.

All I knew was dieting. That's what the world taught me. My weight went up and down and so did my worth.

But God! He met me in my pain and He helped me, so as your sister in Christ,  I'm going to share the first step that I took that changed everything. I made you a helpful guide that lays out the steps. Download it here. 

My Before. Without God in my fitness:

• I was taught dieting was how you get healthy
• I relied on willpower and self-confidence
• My weight went up...

I was praying about how to end the 2023 Strong. Confident His. Podcast Season. It took a moment of pause and reflection to see God’s undeniable hand over every minute of 2023.

What unfolded were remarkable moments of God's grace, guiding every minute of the past 12 months. As I share my experiences, you'll witness how walking in faith, even in the face of doubts, led to incredible outcomes.

I'm not one to boast, but I feel compelled to acknowledge the divine support that carried me through 2023. Battling feelings of who me, being too old, or the thinking that it's too late, I chose to turn away from the devil's lies and follow the path laid out by Jesus....

Birthdays have a way of making us reflect, don't they? I recently celebrated my 55th birthday, but you know what they say, age is just a number. I feel more alive than ever, and whether you're 15 or 90 or somewhere in between, these life lessons I've gathered over the years are like a compass pointing straight to Jesus.

I'm going to be sharing three foundational scriptures, here is our first.

“Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.” – Philippians 4:6-7 NKJV

5 Lessons I Wish My Younger Self Knew

1: If God isn't in it, you don't want it! 

You know, it's so easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle of life, chasing after things that glitter but may not be gold. If God's not at the center, it's like building a house on sand. Sweet friend, trust His plan. If...

Day 15

Pray for God to make your fitness goals more about serving Him and less about what you look like.

Rather than make fitness all about what you look like, make it about how you live and who you live for. God has placed gifts in you and called you to tell people about Him. When you think of fitness motivation begin to consider getting fit to serve, for example, to go on...

Learn What the Bible Says About Fitness and 7 Ways to Incorporate God into Your Fitness 

Do you want to learn more about how to incorporate God into your fitness and what Christian fitness is? 

Today I’m going to share 7 ways to start doing that now!

Many of us are exhausted doing fitness the world’s way and we don’t realize that we have been trying to answer spiritual issues with world-based solutions. As we try to get fit, learn how to create healthy eating habits, and find peace with our body images, we need godly guidance. Maybe it never occurred to you to open your Bible before heading to the gym for your fitness but inviting God into our health and wholeness is the piece of the puzzle that has been missing. 

Today we are recapping the second week of our 21-Day Fitness Bible Study Challenge

This 21-day challenge is a Bible-based guide to give you the foundation of God’s love for you in your fitness. He is with you in your...

In the last three years the world has really changed, right?! Anxiety is at an all-time high, but as Christians, we don’t need to worry and fear, we need to stand on the Word. It is our sword! It is what we fight with. 

What we believe affects the way we think, feel, and live. It’s very hard for us to act or feel better unless we believe better. Today, I want to share 22 scriptures to help us control our emotions and enable us to protect our mental,  emotional, and physical health.

Science and the Bible

I was at Church and the Pastor mentioned a recent study. I wish I knew the source, but it stated that when we talk about something stressful it activates a part of our brain that increases anxiety, but when we pray about it reduces anxiety. Science is catching up to the Bible. 

One of the reasons we feel our emotions is because we want to be in control, but if we’re honest we have no control. We don’t need to try to be in control, we...

I have a story to share with you today that gave me the best example of what is going on in our bodies when we are working out and eating healthy. I mean, how many times have you quit just becasue you’re not seeing results right?

I love it when God makes something so clear, well that is exactly what He did with this story I’m going to share. Recently, I was getting my nails done and the salon had Fixer Upper on, it’s a home renovation show. I love home renovation shows. 

As I watched this sweet older married couple apprehensively allow their old home to be torn down to the studs, and I mean even the foundation was cracked and needed to be redone, God spoke to my heart and showed me something you need to hear... a fitness transformation is just like a home renovation.

See the parallel:

• Imagine your body as a home being renovated. 
• What year was it built?
• What storms has it been through?
• How has it been cared for?
• How much work does it need to...
