Smoothie. Doesn't that word just roll off the tongue nicely? The smoothie has to be one of the greatest inventions (or accidents) in the world of food. But for the runner, it can be one of our best friends. A smoothie can be the perfect recovery food after a long run, provide fuel before a workout and offer a quick and nutritious meal on the go. CJ Has Been a Big Fan of Smoothies For Years Not only are there endless combinations that taste great, but these same combinations can do wonders for your health. In every smoothie CJ makes, at least one fruit is listed in the ingredients. Some will have more. But in his humble opinion, when you remove fruit, you no longer have a smoothie on your hands.

Do you desire to have a heart for prayer?Psalms 27:8 says, "My heart has heard you say, "Come and talk with me." And my heart responds, "Lord, I am coming."Our Father God longs for his children to spend time with him. Having a heart for prayer is simply having a heart for relationship. When we enjoy being with someone, we find ourselves lingering in their presence. One cup of coffee turns into two and before we know it, we lose track of time.That's the way it can be when we linger with our Abba Father. He's never in a hurry to leave and never grows impatient in waiting for us. He's always excited when his children come running into his arms without prodding. Prayer is the proof that we're relying on Father God. When we come to him in prayer, we're saying, I love You.I need You.I want to be with You.My hope is that each of these 21 days help whet your appetite to enjoy a lifetime of sweet prayer with your heavenly Father. May you find yourself agreeing with David in Psalms 34:8,"Taste and see that the Lord is good. Oh, the joys of those who take refuge in him "

A Heart for Prayer: 21 Days of Drawing Close to Father God

Do you desire to encounter Jesus?When we "encounter" something, we are coming face-to-face with it.In Luke 24, we see an interesting encounter between the resurrected Jesus and two of his followers as they were walking from Jerusalem to the town of Emmaus. Luke tells us that "Jesus himself suddenly came and began walking with them" (Luke 24:15).By the end of this encounter, these two travelers were left amazed as they realized they had been with Jesus himself, "Didn't our hearts burn within us as he talked with us on the road and explained the Scriptures to us?" (Luke 24:32)It's my hope that over these next twenty-one days, we'll notice our own hearts burning within us as we walk with Jesus. Perhaps we'll find ourselves having a deeper desire to draw closer to the Son as we encounter Him in unexpected ways.

Encounters with Jesus: 21 Days of Drawing Close to the Son

Have you ever found your prayer times to be stale and lifeless? Perhaps you take time to pray only to lose focus while finding yourself at a sudden loss for words? Praying according to God's Word can add focus while also reminding us of God's timeless promises. It can be the kindling that the Holy Spirit uses to light a fire of deep and meaningful prayer time with our Father. It is our hope that these 50 Days of Praying God's Promises will strengthen and encourage you along with inspiring your own practice of lifting up personal prayers that are rooted in Scripture.

50 Days of Praying God's Promises

The Hebrew word for manna literally means, “What is it?”\nGod would provide this heavenly food for the Israelites day in and day out for forty years!\nThe Psalmist puts it this way as he recalls this incredible period in Israel’s history,\n“He rained down manna for them to eat;he gave them bread from heaven. They ate the food of angels!God gave them all they could hold.” (Psalm 78:24-25)\nOver the course of these next twenty-one days, it’s my hope that God would supply spiritual manna from heaven for our souls. Each day is meant to provide some nourishment from the endless feast that is God’s Word.\n“Jesus replied, “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never be hungry again. Whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.” (John 6:35)\nWith open hands and humble hearts, we pray, “Father, give us today our daily bread.”
