GOOD HEALTH IS WEALTH

"Good health is wealth"... I have heard my mother say that for many years and never really grasped its full meaning until recently as we are seeing people around us suffer in their bodies and contemplating, on our own homefront, the possible expense of medical needs during a time when we do not have health insurance.

If you are healthy and whole, and your family is the same, you are rich in blessings. Count your many blessings, see what God has done. Count your many blessings, name them one by one. I bet you will be amazed how grateful you become when you start counting.

WHO KNEW BASKETBALL COULD BE SO FUN?

TJ started practicing for Upwards Basketball back in January after a family member of Alisha's recommended it. They are active in a local Baptist church and knew that this program was great for all ages.

We have been so pleased with the program -- the values they teach, the spirit of competition (which translates to both teams win every week -- critical for those little guys) the scripture memorization, and of course, the basketball.

Although I hate to admit it, I could easily be one of those parents who is obnoxious at every game ... I just love watching him and his teammates get in there and get aggressive to get that ball and make those shots. And, I'm not the quietest "cheerleader" on the sidelines. BTW, TJ made his first shot in a game this past week. I was so excited for him... he gave me the thumbs up sign and grinned, then with renewed confidence in his ability, ran right over to an opposing team member and pulled the ball away on the next play -- OOPS, they had already blown the whistle... he was so pumped.

I thought how that should be a picture of us as Christians... our Father gives us the tools to be winners and to play an offensive game victoriously and as we test and prove Him strong, we should be built up in confidence and be ready to take back anything that has been stolen by the enemy... faith is built in all of us by looking at our past victories and successes and we can walk tall and proud as children of the Most High, our Victor in every situation.
