    What’s Your Battle Cry?

    May I politely ask, what is your battle cry?  What do you shout when you are in trouble? Okay, maybe you don’t shout literally, but who do you call upon in your time of need?  Who do you cry out to help you in sickness or loneliness? Who do you call upon when you have problems with your children? Who do you call upon when your husband has decided he doesn’t want to be married to you anymore?  Who do you call upon when you don’t have money for the pile of bills on the table? A battle cry is known to be used to rally a group of soldiers…

The second woman was forced to do three hours of exercise each day for a week. Yes, she cried.  I couldn’t believe the first lady exercises that much every day of her life! That’s totally insane!!! I bet she actually cheats. Don’t you?   Anyways, fast forward to today.  After I got home from work, I decided to try to COMMIT…

    And So It Begins!

    Who says Christian and chaos can’t be used in the same sentence?  Do you remember what happened when Jesus walked into the temple where doves were being sold?  If so, you remember tables were turned over in the chaos. Peter could walk on the water until the chaos of unbelief!  Jonah created chaos for himself when he refused to follow God’s wishes. Let’s not forget Mary, the mother of Jesus Christ himself!  She found herself pregnant and shamed, even though she was chosen by God! If that wasn’t enough, she later had to flee for the safety of her child.  If we looked chaos up in a dictionary at that…
