Christ is magnified and not man


A beautiful quote to start the weekend.  It is always good to be reminded that in the end, God is the one who is glorified and honored and not the dees and thoughts of mankind.  I pray for safety, i pray for love, and I pray for peace for everyone this weekend.  In Jesus Name, Amen. -PJSLB

Francis Chan is one of my my “go to’s” when i am looking for inspiration with a modern twist.  You should definitely check him out, if you haven’t already.

God is present 


I love it when I see Gods presence in the unlikeliest places. The lord is around us always! PJSLB

Inspirational sayings for my students

Today, some of my students will be playing their first tennis match and im excited and nervous for them.  I have a tradition of writing a short note and sharing some words of encouragement to them that is personal and unique to just them.  Below are some of the quotes i used this year.

Please say a prayer for these young/future leaders of our church as they play their first match.  I pray that regardless of the score and outcome, that they always seek and reflect God’s glory.  Im nervous for them!!! -PJSLB

God giving me what I really need


I’m beginning to understand this more as I live it. I thank you lord and love you for giving me what I need and not what I want. -PJSLB
