So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded.
What if there was something you could tap into that offered both instant gratification AND longterm benefits? What if this something was available to everyone, despite age or gender or demographics or background? Sounds too good to be true, right?
What if that “something” is confidence?

This past weekend Pastor Kevin talked about “Life Gets Better When Confidence Gets Bigger.” There are a lot of people who may consider confidence as one of those motivational, feel-good, surface-only kinds of things. But, the Bible clearly tells us, “So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded.” The truth is that confidence gives you the instant gratification of feeling better about yourself and what you’re doing, and it ACTUALLY makes your life better in the long run. We can trust that confidence maintained in our mind produces rich rewards in our lives. Think about it, confidence changes the way you pray, it changes how you think, and
It’s an interesting question. Can a spark of God’s love light a fire in your? In your church? In your community? nation? world?
We did this song, “Spark” by The City Harmonic a couple months ago as a First Five at Champions Centre.
As you go about your day today, or your week this week, consider if there is a fire burning inside of you. What are you passion about? And, what are you doing about it?
Here are the Lyrics:
Could a spark of Your love light a fire in me
Just a spark warm my cold heart
It’s the living that breathe
When I breathe in
Hope I breathe in
Create some meaning again
And I breathe in, peace will be there
Just a stream of love
Ohhh
This little light’s gonna shine
With just a spark to light a fire
Just a spark
Mother love is the fuel that enables a normal human being to do the impossible.
~Marion C. Garretty, quoted in A Little Spoonful of Chicken Soup for the Mother’s Soul
Happy Mother’s Day!

Pastor Kevin began his message last weekend with a confession: “Every week at Champions Centre things happen that we don’t know how they happen.”
He went on to explain a couple truths to further clarify his confession:
Last weekend at the Kingdom Builders Advance, Pastor Kevin talked about five things that can change everything. Looking at the life of Nehemiah, one of the things he brought up was “Preparation.”
Nehemiah’s life had prepared him for his opportunity. He was uniquely prepared for his assignment.
Opportunity favors the prepared.
“Practice isn’t the thing you do once you’re good, it’s the thing you do that makes you good!” Malcolm Gladwell in Outliers
Opportunity collides with preparation and that is success.
Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.
