Lifelong Learners

You know what it means to be a lifelong learner?

It means forever keeping our minds sharp, our bodies as fit as possible, and reading as much as we can. Those are just some of the ways we stay alert and vibrant. Age is nothing but a number and there are so many ways to stay abreast of the latest and the greatest. Remember how old Abraham and Sarah were when God did miraculous things in their lives? He blessed them with a biological son. Abraham was about 100 and Sarah was 90 years old. I don't know what that age would be today, but Abraham and Sarah didn't believe it back then, so point noted. We would think the same today. Nevertheless, they were willing and able to do what the Lord needed them to do in order to carry out His mandates. Having Isaac was one of them.

Do you think that would have happened if they had a give-up attitude or if it would have happened if they weren't in good shape spirituality, emotionally and physically? Highly doubtful. They were lifelong learners willing to go the distance. And they were exceedingly blessed, because of it. Genesis 17 tells more about their story.

The lesson here is that you're never too old to learn anything, to be anything, and to do anything. Stay opened-minded to learning. You never know what the Lord has in store for you.

God blesses whomever he wants to bless, whenever he wants to bless them

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

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
