Weekly Workouts

INTRO

Welcome to the weekly workout section to the Journey! In this packet, you will
find your weekly tasks to do every day for a week, when you hit the check point,
smile and move on to the next week, go at your own pace, this doesnt HAVE to be
done every single week, but I would strongly encourage it. For some of the weekly
things if you need to draw pictures, or if one simple word is enough for you, than
do what you feel will help you in the long run whatever it may be. I am glad you
have decided to try this out and start this journey with me, because two is always
better than one and in everything I try to get others to do, I make sure I do it
myself whatever it is in life. I pray this will help your faith grow and your spirit
soar on the wings of eagles. We were meant to live for something so much more
than what we are living right now in most cases, and so this will help you get that
mindset hopefully to go out and become disciples everywhere that God sends you
(or anywhere you find yourself going in life). This journey will be hard, it will
require as much as you decide to put into it, but I hope you will go all out and be
all in for this and not hold anything back. Remember, you could be entertaining
angels or even more so, serving Jesus himself when you help the needy and the
poor, etc. So, lets not take any more time up and let us get started on this
journey!! Come, take my hand, and lets take that first step

Congratulations! You have finished this part of the journey!! I am so proud of the work you
have done through these weekly workouts and hope that it was fulfilling for you!! I hope
throughout these weeks, you have grown into what God wants from you and youve been able
to see God work in very real ways in peoples lives around you, including your own! Now,
your faith is hopefully alive and the fire is ignited, go out into the world and continue the
journey! Whenever things happen that shake your faith, remember what you went through
and come back to these packets to see what God has done and what He will continue to do in
your life!! My prayers will always be with you as you continue this journey, and continue to
grow in Gods love and grace. Before you continue though, I want you to look around where
you are RIGHT NOW and appreciate what God has given you. Then say Thank you! You are
ready to RADIATE for CHRIST and with saying that, I will leave you with one final verse This
verse comes from Luke 11:36 in the New Living Translation

If you are filled with light, with no dark corners, then your whole life will be
radiant, as though a floodlight were filling you with light.

God bless my friend and may you find happiness in everything you do!
