Good morning and happy Friday! Yeah, it's Friday and I'm so excited because I'm going on a date with my hubby tonight! The kids are hanging with their grandma and grandpa tonight and tomorrow. Liz and grandma are shopping for her new room. She is so much like me and has her list properly made and in her purse.

We've been going to the Pontiac rec center on Thursday evenings to play basketball and noticed a sign for a scuba diving class. My husband has scuba dived in the past but decided to take the free first class last night. He had such a great time and was still pumped this morning. He now wants to start the certification class.

This is something he really enjoyed doing before we were married but hasn't had the opportunity since. It is one of his dreams to dive in really cool places all over the world but a dream that he hasn't pursued due to financial and time restraints.

What is your dream? What is holding you back from your dreams? I hope and pray that it is not fear. Fear controlled my life for many years and still tries to wiggle its way back in but I am learning to trust God in those times.

I was watching a 5 part message by Andy Stanley on growing in faith on youtube and he spoke about how when you say you can't do something because you are afraid, it is the perfect situation for you to do that thing and grow your faith. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tRm-dgN0H9w

Is fear holding you back?? It is time to trust God. It is time to grow your faith. It is time to believe in the God you believe in!!

Have a great day and a great weekend!
Living fearlessly in Christ
