Two days ago as my Junior High team and I ran a distance run, one of my runners was struggling, and out of breath, he uttered, &#8220;Coach Wolf, I can&#8217;t run anymore! &nbsp;It hurts!&#8221; To which I replied, &#8220;No, those are the wrong words! &nbsp;Repeat after me &#8211; &#8216;I am strong!'&#8221; and he echoed, &#8220;I am strong.&#8221; And again &#8211; &#8220;I can do anything through Christ who strengthens me!&#8221; &#8220;I can do anything through Christ who strengthens me!&#8221; And we kept this up until we finally reached the end of our training period &#8211; speaking life over ourselves. Then yesterday in the 2-mile time trial, he ran very well! &nbsp; &nbsp;After congratulating him, he said with a huge smile, &#8220;I said the words over and over in my head &#8211; &#8216;I am strong, I am courageous, I can do this&#8217; &#8211; and I did!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>How many times do we hear the voice of defeat, frustration, or that we&#8217;re not valuable? &nbsp; It&#8217;s time to stop listening to the negative voices, and start speaking life into our circumstances, into our family and into us!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Now&#8230;.Coach Holy Spirit is saying to us today&#8230;..&#8221;Repeat after me&#8230;..&#8217;I am strong, I am courageous, I can do this!&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Day 284 of Photo Inspirations &#8212; What Are the Voices in Your Head Saying?
