Today I’m wearing PINK to help raise awareness for cancer. It’s a day that brings back lots of emotion. Ask anyone if they know someone who has had cancer or has died from cancer and they’ll share a painful story with you.
My mom was promoted to heaven after a battle with cancer. My grandmother has had breast cancer twice and beat it twice.
So today I wear PINK. I’ve never wore pink before and to be honest I felt a little awkward at first. I am supportive of cancer research and making people aware of the need for funding but just haven’t gone PINK.
To tell you the truth, I’m really liking my PINK shirt.
I guess you could say I’m going PINK for what I’m passionate about.
Today’s Walk-Away: What are you so passionate about that you need to make others aware of it? Take some time today and think/pray about what need in your life you need to go PINK for then do it. It may feel awkward at first but your passion should outweigh your pride – right?
leading people to a new Victory in Christ

Trust
Trust
\trəst\ trēowe – faithful, assured reliance on the character, ability, strength, or truth of someone or something b: one in which confidence is placed
I think a lot of people really struggle with the concept of trust.
· I see kids at the pool struggle to trust their dad to catch them as they prepare to jump in.
· I watch couples struggle to trust each other when one of them says, “I have to work late tonight, don’t bother staying up for me.”
· I hear employees complain that they struggle to trust their boss who told them, their job is secure.
With all this struggling to trust I wonder how many of us really believe that we can trust a living God?
There’s this verse I’ve read too many times to count that talks about, ‘trusting in the Lord with all my heart.’
To me that means no matter what circumstance I find myself in, I’m able to have the confidence that God is working his will out in my life for my improvement.
For me, the biggest struggle I have with trust, is why wouldn’t everyone want to place their confidence in a God who’s never let anyone down?
