God is good all the time...

...and all the time God is good.

He is my fortress. "He is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble" (Psalms 46:1). He is also our refuge, strength, and our very present help in time of peace. How do I know? Because He comforted me when I was high and He comforted me when I was going through hell. He gave me peace in the middle of a storm. I remember going through a traumatic event that I don't talk about much and I wondered how He would get me through it. I didn't dwell on it, I just wondered how, when all the decks were stacked against me. Yet He got me through in ways I could have never imagined. In fact I still scratch my head in awe and wonder. Yet, that's God.

He's good all the time and all the time He is good.

He wants to use our life as a testimony to people not to ever give up -- to stay with Him during the tough times and during the great times. Yes, He's good and He ensures "we will not fear though the earth gives way, though the mountains be moved into the heart of the sea, though its waters roar and foam, though the mountains tremble at its swelling (Psalm 46:2/3). He reminds us that we have nothing to fear. Fear (or anxiety) don't come from the Lord. Relax in Him and take solace that His Word stands through the test of time. It's solid, credible, and reliable. If you're having some challenges and going through a hard time right now, keep praying to God and keep seeking Him. And if you're not going through a hard time, still pray and keep seeking Him.

"The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress." Stand on God's Word.

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...

God is Real

I've often had conversations about how we know God is real, about how we know His spirit lives, about how we know we are spiritual beings in human form (not the other way around). The answers lie in the beginning starting with the living spirit of God and how the world began. God is Real. He's a living breathing spirit, an organism. God is love . I often wonder how it is that some people think the opposite though. That the world began with a bang, a big bang, a black hole, whatever else they want to call it. The question I always raise to such a "theory" is, how was love created? How was flesh, blood, bones, or our souls created? What I mean by soul is that part of us that perceives "silently" what we do, think, believe, feel, and our mind, our will, our intellect, our emotions. Science or no bang or hole of any sort can explain that. If science can indeed come up with an explanation that does not include God, then let me know. In fact, let us all kno...
