Verse of the Day....

 

In His time, in His time

He makes all things beautiful

In His time

Lord, please show me everyday

As You're teaching me Your way

That You do just what You say

In Your time

In Your time, in Your time

You make all things beautiful

In Your time

Lord, my life to You I bring

May each song I have to sing

Be to You a lovely thing

In Your time

Lord, please show me everyday

As You're teaching me Your way

That You do just what You say

In Your time

In Your time (in Your time)

In Your time (in Your time, Lord)

You make all things beautiful

In Your time

Lord, my life to You I bring

May each song I have to sing

Be to You a lovely thing

In Your time

Be to You a lovely thing

In Your time

(Song by The Maranatha! Singers ‧ 1999)

Quote of the Day...

Truth!!!  

I know this to be absolutely true because I have lived through some major storms in my life and God has brought me through to the other side.  I shouldn't even be here today but I am and it's all because of God!  God saved my life and gave me a purpose. He is no respecter of persons.  What He does for one He WILL do for another!  

Jeremiah 29:11 (New Living Translation) says, "For I know the plans I have for you, 'says the Lord.' They are plans for good and not disaster, to give you a future and a hope."  The Amplified Version says it this way, "For I know the plans and thoughts that I have for you, 'says the Lord,' plans for peace and well-being and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope."  

God has plans for you and I and He Will Use Those Plans to Make Us!!!

Verse of The Day...

The Countdown is On - 4 Days to Go!

 

At this time 17 years ago I was just like every expectant mom & I was ready to give birth.  Just four more days and Tim would enter our world on Mother's Day.  The best Mother's Day gift ever!!!  That year he wasn't only my Mother's Day gift but my mom's and Scot's mom as well.  We were so thrilled.  He has been so incredibly loved every single day of his life and he knows it.  He is an amazing young man and there's nothing we wouldn't do for him and he knows that too.  We are looking forward to all that God has in store for him as he continues to make steps into manhood.  We love this kid to the moon and beyond & can't wait to celebrate on Sunday!!!  

Barbells N Sprinkles Spring Open Meet 2025 (5/3/2025)...

Tim had a fantastic time at the Meet Saturday.  He got to hang out and compete with several of his teammates and they were all having a blast together.  I love how well they all get along.  

Tim did a 90kg Snatch PR + 117kg Clean & Jerk PR + 207 Total PR.  I was a great day for him being able to increase his numbers by 16kg from his last Meet.  

Tim is learning so much and growing so much.  He loves his team and coach and is so proud to have made some really good friends that he gets to work out with on a daily basis.  

Here are some pictures that I got of his lifts at the Meet:

90kg Snatch PR

Fun with some of the guys.

117kg Clean & Jerk PR

Gold Medalist!

We shared his best videos on our social media pages.  We couldn't share them here because we kept getting told the file size was too large.  So you'll have to go to our social media pages if you are friends with us to see his videos.

Barbell's N Sprinkles Spring Open Weightlifting Meet 2025....

Today Tim lifts at the Barbell's N Sprinkles Spring Open Weightlifting Meet.

Tim is looking forward to increasing his official PR numbers today.  We are looking forward to watching him at this warm up to USA Youth Nationals Meet today.  He's only doing this as a warmup to see where his numbers are.  They aren't giving awards for Youth competitors as far as we know.  Today is all about the numbers!
