Oct 21, 2017 ~ Just 25 days before this photo was taken, Hurricane Maria brought dangerous rip currents, lashing winds, power outages, and significant property damage to the Outer Banks of North Carolina.

I was in awe that day how such a peaceful and serene Sunrise could be recovered after an immensely destructive period... I’m completely overwhelmed by knowing that this same place where I stood endured a crushing storm just weeks earlier.

But God....

Time changes things. God moves.
Your storm today can be a mile marker for your season of growth in the near future.
Your difficult season is temporary.
It may seem like it’s not gonna end, but it will.
Look for the treasures while you’re in the tough season and bring them with you when your season changes.

Psalm 1.1-3 - Blessed is the one...whose delight is in the law of the Lord, and who meditates on his law day and night. That person is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither— whatever they do prospers.

“The right doors won’t open for you until the right version of yourself is ready to walk through them.” ~ Unknown

Praising God today - He keeps re-shaping me into a newer version of Christ-likeness EVERY CHANCE HE GETS.

WHO KNEW 🤗

10 years ago, I’d already been teaching for 5 years when this feature article was published in our local newspaper in May 2016.

At that time, 10 years ago, who knew:
1. Some of you weren’t aware Christ-centered yoga existed before you saw this article - then you started attending with me!
2. I’d still be practicing at this same church location since 2011.
3. This same newspaper has now nominated my practice 3 years in a row as “Readers Choice” in the YOGA section of BODY & SOUL category.

God knows, I wouldn’t have guessed … also, I’m so glad God just gives us 🥰

IT’S NOT REAL YOGA

“Chair yoga isn’t real yoga. So if you’re aging, injured, pregnant, recovering, exhausted, or human, you shouldn’t even try to do yoga. Especially not using a chair. Because that’s basically cheating. And everybody knows there’s no benefit to yoga unless you can put your perfect body into perfect shapes.”

Uh - Ridiculous right?
That’s a snarky quote by Lizzie Lasater | Yoga Content Creator that almost made me spit out my coffee when I read it. 😂😂
If you know me, you know this is MY KIND of humor…

So anyway, I hope you’ll join me on Wednesdays this month in Canfield.

MY NEW BLOG POST:

“...As we approached the car, there they were AGAIN! That young family just happened to be parked nearby. I realized they were watching me and I felt a tinge of uncomfortable vulnerability. Like they were staring at this person who doesn’t appear handicapped. I was thinking maybe they were curious (at best) or...”

“We should never think of being obedient to Jesus as being a penalty, if you like.
It’s not a penalty; it’s a glory.
If you think about it in terms of examination, since we mentioned that: The harder the test we give to a student, the greater the glory for success.
The harder the challenge you give to an architect—limited resources, limited space, limited time—the greater the glory attaches to the success.
The more demanding the position is entrusted to the surgeon at the clinic, the harder it is, the greater the glory attaches to it.
And so, when we say to ourselves, “Well, this is going to be a hard road to follow Jesus; this is going to be a narrow path to follow Jesus,” that’s not a penalty.
That’s the pathway to glory.” Alistair Begg
