Spiritual WOD 5/8/13

Scripture: Mark 4:18-19

Reflection: These are the words that call about distractions in life.  Todays lives are wide open with a lot going on.  You may not be turning from God or Church because of immoral's of sin.  But maybe you have so much going on that you don't go to church that one day.  Maybe you skip out on hanging with your close Christian friends.  I love this saying, "If the devil can't get in front of you and stop you, he will get behind you and push you too fast."

Duty: Stop and take a minute today to call up a close Christian friend or group of friends and set a date to get together.  You need those people as close to you in you life as you need Jesus.  And both Jesus and those friends need you. 
Strong Christian athletes hard at it!

Spiritual WOD 5-4-13

Scripture: Philippians 6:6-7

Reflection:  The hardest thing that most people have to deal with is control.  You want things to go your way, or you want to make the right decision.  And by trying to have this control on everything in you life you may feel worries, doubt, anxiety.  Let Christ take these burdens off of you. 

Duty:  Evey-one has a list of responsibilities and with those come choices.  Pick one or two and pray about them.  Ask God to be with you and to take these troubled thought off your shoulders.  By praying and talking to Him; He will make you feel better by lifting the stress and He will love you more because you are strengthening your relationship with Him.
