The highest form of intelligence is self-awareness without judgment. When you learn to witness yourself with compassion, you start seeing others through that same lens of grace. James 2:4 (NIV) “Have you not discriminated among yourselves and become judges with evil thoughts?”

What a blessing to be able to talk to the students at Pittsburg High School. Thank you Anita Hernandez for having Coach Pip and I . Don’t accept the life that was given to you . Be yourself . You deserve to be great . You are not a victim .

Do not cling to what was or fear what will be . The present moment , even in suffering , is your teacher . When you stop trying to escape it, you begin to understand it .

You can’t control every outcome , but you can control your response .

When the world feels too big to fix , shrink your focus . Make your goal simple : complete that workout , send that email , read that verse Momentum - even small - rebuilds hope .

“Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that the family of believers throughout the world is undergoing the same kind of sufferings.” 1 Peter 5:8-9

I feel a blessing on the way

Incomplete obedience is still disobedience. God isn’t pleased with “mostly right.” He wants all in. Revelation 3:16 — “Because you are lukewarm—neither hot nor cold—I am about to spit you out of my mouth.”

God show me how good it can get , but don’t allow my heart to be prideful of the pleasures of this worldly life . I know that the pleasures of this life are nothing compared to the Hereafter . Amen .

They see a team. I see God’s hand at work .

Stop waiting on guarantees and walk with God who is the only guarantee . Your comfort zone is not in Gods will . Don’t treat uncertainty as failure but as feedback .

Whoever is mindful of God and patient , then certainly God never discounts the reward of the good doers .

Hey Hounds adjust that schedule for Saturday’s 🏀Hoops doubleheader in Arnold! Greyhound Women 1pm vs Central Methodist Greyhound Men 3pm vs Mission University No Fort Scott Live broadcast so we will see you tomorrow!!

Don’t let one moment dictate your day.

Dominate when you feel like it and dominate when you don’t feel like it .

Don’t allow your need to be liked or approved to drift you away from your purpose. Don’t chase fleeting entities that will soon fade away. God’s approval is never fleeting. Don’t be double-minded in your ways. Set your mind on things above, not on earthly things.” Colossians 3:2

Average skill. Phenomenal will.

You were created in God’s image — that means strength, courage, and purpose already live in you. There’s no room for fear or hesitation. Stand firm, move with confidence, and walk in the authority He placed inside you.

“Assertiveness without completion breeds doubt” Cj

Don’t make the mistake of evaluating your intentions as successes or failures on the basis of your ego and a time schedule . Detach from the outcome. Control your habits.
