Sweet friend,
August here we come! Stronger together, we are ready to inspire you! New goals, new dreams, new beginnings! This month let’s COMMIT - in all that we do! Whether it is exercise, nutrition, or your spiritual journey, we want to help you COMMIT to your goals and dreams this month! We can’t wait to encourage you in the studio to live transformed!
COMMIT in August!
Here is a great acronym to help you be inspired this month!
C- CONFIDENCE- "You are altogether beautiful, my darling; there is no flaw in you." Song of Solomon 4:7
Remember this truth from scripture and be bold and CONFIDENT because YOU have been specifically created in God's image for something amazing. Walk in the light of confidence today.
O- OBEDIENCE- "He replied, 'Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and obey it.'" Luke 11:28
We were not called to an easy life, but blessed are we who give our best with what we have! Every detail, even the mundane tasks of laundry and cleaning can bring glory to God! Exercising and eating well some days will not be easy, but your body is capable of more than you can dream of and by treating your body well you're honoring God. Obedience unlocks blessings.
M- MOTIVATION- "Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men." Colossians 3:23
Let's be ALL IN this month! Even the days you don't feel like it, just show up, give yourself grace, and give your best surrendering every ounce of yourself- heart, mind, body, spirit to His loving hands. A smaller dress size or a weekend party can be temporary motivation, but the ultimate prize- living fully for Christ- is the true motivation. Start today and let's encourage each other.
M- MINDFULNESS- "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Phillippians 4:6-7
When we shift our thoughts to thanksgiving, our attitude shifts and our hearts soften. Turn your grumbling into gratitude! Be present and be grateful for the blessings that you have, today! Daily or hourly, repeat this truth and believe that all things are possible when we present our requests to Him.
I- INTENTIONAL- "Commit to the Lord, whatever you do, and He will establish your plans." Proverbs 16:3
"Whatever you do", let these words speak to your heart! Surrender and submit yourself daily to Him first and He will guide you. What YOU focus on grows- be intentional with your time, your thoughts, your goals, and your dreams. Schedule your exercise, meals, quiet time intentionally this month!
T- TRANSFORM- "Do not conform to the patterns of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind." Romans 12:2
Remember, beautiful friend, that comparison is the thief of joy. Here is what is true: you are strong, you are confident, you are enough just as you are, and you are a beloved daughter of the Almighty King. Renewing your mind is a minute by minute decision to think thoughts that are true about the person you really are! Believe it and transform your life by taking action on your goals and dreams. LIVE transformed by His amazing love for you.
Commitment is an ACT, not a word! You can determine the person you want to be! Take action each minute this August!
Commit to being all in TODAY!
