Hi Peeps,
Today’s Quote
“In your profession, you must train like a boxer or Olympic athlete to study and understand the story of your craft, so that you are prepared for the battle of the day.” ~ Jon Barnes
Battle
Each day the battle is coming to you and a trained professional will conduct themselves well under the pressures and stress that will occur. The more experience and preparation you have, the more likely you will succeed in your efforts. The process may not be pretty or fun, but you had better get your work done.
Effort
The amount of effort you put into learning about God and doing what He says will net you the kind of results that make sense for you and your family. The quality of love, respect, and obedience will help to facilitate smother up and down transitions in life as well. God measures your faith, motives, and intentions all of the time with daily tests to prove His Point and your lack of preparation.
Learn
Learn to prepare, study, and prove God’s Words and Works in your own life. Your faith should produce measured results of love, hope, charity, goodness, kindness, patience, long-suffering, and meekness for all to see in your lifestyle. Otherwise, you haven’t learned anything. You must put these acts into daily practice for professional & spiritual growth.

1 Come with great power, O God, and rescue me!
Defend me with your might.
2 Listen to my prayer, O God.
Pay attention to my plea.
3 For strangers are attacking me;
violent people are trying to kill me.
They care nothing for God. Interlude

4 But God is my helper.
The Lord keeps me alive!
5 May the evil plans of my enemies be turned against them.
Do as you promised and put an end to them.

5 May the evil plans of my enemies be turned against them.
Do as you promised and put an end to them.
6 I will sacrifice a voluntary offering to you;
I will praise your name, O Lord,
for it is good.
7 For you have rescued me from my troubles
and helped me to triumph over my enemies.

for it is good.
7 For you have rescued me from my troubles
and helped me to triumph over my enemies.
