Unless you’ve been on another planet for the past two weeks, I’m sure you’ve heard the remarkable story of Gabby Douglas.
Gabby won the Olympic Gold Medal in the Women’s Gymnastics individual all around competition becoming the third American woman in history and first African-American to win the coveted title.
Watching Gabby with my kids and reading her amazing story has inspired me. She had such an intense hunger and desire to become a champion that she sacrificed her own comfort and familiar surroundings to achieve her unbelievable goal.
Shouldn’t we all be that way?
Shouldn’t we all want to achieve our goals so much that we give it everything we’ve got?
All day I’ve been asking myself those questions. I’ve been thinking about my compelling reasons and driving motivation for change.
Why do I want what I want?
Can’t I just rely on Matthew 7:7?
Maybe or maybe not.
Check out James 4:3 with me. I meditated on this earlier today… so much good stuff to come…
I love you and I’m praying for you.
