Covered

Do you know God loves us so much He shields, defends, and protects us against anything that wants to bring us harm? And He does the same when we make wrong choices, dumb decisions, and careless mistakes. 

We are covered and forgiven by Jesus' blood. The blood He shed for us. 

Just for us. 

We don't have to die (anymore) when we fall short or when we mess up or when we don't measure up. Jesus took all of that pain so we wouldn't have to. In other words, we are covered daily. The Lord God is always working on our behalf. He's our rear guard, our front, left and our right. He's our armor from the top of our head to the bottom of our feet. We have His safeguards from all directions. 

And if anyone asks how we're doing we can simply reply, "we're good" and mean it.

Yet everyone isn't covered though. There are certain things that must be done in order for that to happen. We have to become a child of God. We have to believe with our heart that Jesus died (and rose) for us, confess with our mouth that He died (and rose) for us, and ask for forgiveness for our sins. Then and only then, will we be saved (Romans 10:9).

Salvation is available for anyone and everyone. 

And once that happens, you're in there. Covered.

Another helpful scripture: 1 John 1:5-10

Protecting My Peace - Day 98 - Momentum and Movement, That’s What's Up

Click to listen to current podcast episode. “Never Giving Up” are power-words — strong affirmations that give us momentum and movement. That’s what’s up. We can do so much more in our lives when we have momentum and movement. It’s about standing, literally and not sitting or laying around feeling sorry for ourselves. I used to do that once upon a time and that sorrowful thinking is for the birds. We don’t have to be down. We can get up and get going even if we start small. In fact, I love starting small, because it helps set a firm foundation of habits and routines. Momentum and movement will help us get and maintain a position of strength to do what God says we can do.

Daily Devotional Podcast. Follow along with blog post. When I was going through a dark time -- when I had nothing -- there was a certain person who helped me sometimes. She helped me whenever she basically felt like it, but she did help, and for that I'm appreciative. But, something interesting happened after I started growing out of my despair. Something interesting started happening when I no longer needed her for anything. And something interesting happened even though I remained kind and grateful towards. The interesting thing that happened was that she started hating on me. She started treating me differently. At first I was really bothered by it, because I thought she and her husband were nice people I wanted in my life. I liked that they had a sense of compassion and were interested in helping people who were down and low. That really appealed to me, because I was raised that way; my mother was raised that way; her mother was raised that way, and it goes back to as fa

Protecting My Peace - Day 96 - Disciplining Ourselves for Next Level Greatness

Click to listen to today's podcast episode. When it comes to next level greatness, we have to know that applies to us, not just everyone else. Do you know what God has for you? Do you? He has GREATNESS for you. Yes, YOU -- all of us. It's about doing what you can do and only you can do. You are the only one with your DNA -- none of us. is the same Yet, even when we're feeling down, discouraged, and out, those emotions are only temporary. None of us has it all together. Sometimes I procrastinate and put things off when I know I should be doing better. Yet, I am not as diligent and disciplined as I can be sometimes. Like when it comes to working out, I delay it, because I don't like it anymore. And although I love reading the bible, I haven't been reading it as often as I should lately. Yes, I, Sharon, the Faith Coach, do not do the things I'm supposed to do when I'm supposed to do them. And that my dear friends should not come as a shock to no one. It certa
