What The Lord Is Saying Today

December 15, 2011. Someone apologized for being overly confident and too forthright in ministry. When the Holy Spirit is leading, there is never need for apology. He exalts Jesus and seeks to glorify Him. He does that quietly and seldom with fanfare. This is a season to come forth. Step into the light of My glory and claim your rightful place in My Kingdom. I have made you and prepared you for these last days. Claim your inheritance of reigning with Me now and later. All My promises to you are yes and amen. I am for you so who could be against you. Stretch out and stretch forth to embrace your royal possessions. Galatians 5:16,18,25 (NASB) “But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not carry out the desire of the flesh.” “But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the Law.” “If we live by the Spirit, let us also walk by the Spirit.”

Yesterday on the Radio version of Dewey’s Daily Cup and New Mexico News and Views we talked about FORGIVENESS. This is a HUGE subject any day of the year,but during the Christmas season it can be one that really get’s the emotional pot going crazy. Not forgiving others or not forgiving ourselves. Whether it is an Abortion, Divorce, and Affair, Drug use, Alcohol, bankruptcy, Pornography, Lies, Sexual abuse,Domestic Violence, Problems in the Church, problems with the Pastor…….FORGIVENESS for many is tough……How do you feel about Forgiving yourself and others?

Matthew 6:14…..

“For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.”

1 John 1:9 ESV

If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

What do we not understand about God’s Word on this?

Kathy Robbins who I met in Asheville, NC at the Revival that I took part in with Dr. Kyle Martin, was my guest on the CUP yesterday. Kathy is a Christian leader in Asheville. She has been through much in her life. She shared a huge part of her journey yesterday…I was so touched with her testimony…WOW! She had an abortion and she also lost her husband to suicide. If you would like an audio copy of this interview let me know. It is one of the best interviews I have ever had on Forgiveness, not because of me, but because Kathy just lays it all out their for God.

Here is the Fact sheet that Kathy supplied me for our interview…….She has had to forgive herself and others…..We can learn much from Kathy’s Testimony!

What are the current statistics concerning abortion in the USA? (43% of people less than 45 yrs old have had at least one abortion.)
(Each Sunday in USA almost 50% people attending church have had or been directly involved with an abortion with little or no healing.)
Why? Secret sin that none wants to address because of shame and being judged.

Number of abortions per day: Approximately 3,700

What occurred in your life 2 yrs ago that began the journey into your healing?
(My Mother died. I had been caregiving for 19 years with my parents. Saw the date on her tombstone, fell over it wailing and when I stood up I felt closure. I sat down in my car and Holy Spirit said “it is time to give your children their identities.”)

Would you share briefly about your husband? (My husband committed suicide sixteen months ago- I myself battled suicide for eight months until Holy Spirit said “the tormentors have been loosed against you.” Unforgiveness releases the tormentors. He then told me I held unforgiveness toward myself for 30 yrs. I had to go back 30 yrs to release my children before being able to release my husband so I could live.)

What was some of the impact of abortion? (Psychological-Emotional trauma: always pregnant in the mind. obesity from daily looking in the mirror and wondering what it would have been like to be pregnant at each stage. Rejection of womanhood- directly opposes God’s plan for a woman; the image of myself as a mother was damaged; withdraw from my families and didn’t mother at all-eventually had a hysterectomy; tried many ways to fill the emptiness; became a super aunt; feeling guilty, shame, sorrow, unworthy, self condemnation, loneliness, bitter. My healthy suffered greatly; sleep disturbances; All kinds of Behavior Changes; difficulty with all types of intimacy; I divided time into “before” and “after” the abortion: hopeless) The fruit of death comes into every area of your life.

A woman may say she knows God forgives her, but she cannot forgive herself. This says she still feels guilty. This means she does not accept God’s plan for dealing with sin, which is Jesus’ death dying in place of my sin. Many times we are forgiven yet continue to walk in condemnation. We regret our decision for having an abortion but struggle with feelings of unworthiness for having chosen abortion. We think we are branded and marred for life. Others may try to earn God’s forgiveness by working for it.

Grieving is a normal and healthy response to a major loss through death. After an abortion women may attempt to bury their grief, turn their emotions off, and run from God. They don’t feel worthy to grieve their loss. Women who have an abortion feel guilty because they DO know what part they played in their child’s death. There are several stages of grieving a woman must go through to find the healing she is crying for.Relief that it’s over, denial over a period of years, suddenly becoming angry, learning to forgive, depression and finally accepting their mistake and surrounding herself with God’s loving forgiveness. The final stage of grieving is acceptance.

I went through a Bible study with another woman and two facilitators in Forgiven and Set Free by Linda Cochrane. One of the areas I have studied greatly is the Character of God. Just Who is He really? Can I trust Him with my deepest hurts? Understanding who God is invites us to get close to Him. Knowing who God is encourages us to be like Him, to love Him, to respond to Him in obedience and to bring our needs to Him. A woman is a nurturer. It is easy to see why we have to look at the natural instinct God gave us in order to be healed. He is a Nurturer and only He can show us how to receive his healing touch.

God sent his Son to set us free from the bondage of our sin. Feeling unforgiven is very often caused by feelings of guilt. We are set free from this bondage by first of all acknowledging sin’s existence. When we recognize the sin as the source of our guilt, we then apply the truth of God’s word to our lives. If we do not believe and obey the truth of his Word regarding our sin, we will stay in emotional bondage, crippled by guilt and feelings of unworthiness. If we DO believe and obey, we can be set free from this emotional bondage and being to walk in the light of God’s forgiveness and love.

Forgiveness isn’t making allowances. Is not forgetting; it is not an open door for more wrongdoing; it is not resolution. Forgiveness is a choice, not an emotion; Forgiveness is a process; It is breaking the power of pain, anger and hatred. It is an act of grace. When we choose to forgive and receive forgiveness, God sends grace to do the healing. Forgiveness mirrors the character of God.

I encourage each woman who is listening who needs healing in this area to find another woman who can walk with her through this journey. I strongly do not encourage you to try and do it by yourself. Go to a local pregnancy center and seek counseling, pastoral or Christian counseling. It is so rich when you walk with another woman who is working out her salvation also. God wants us healed more than we want to pursue it. The freedom will be worth the confrontation of the ghosts from the past. The most powerful statement I can make is I am no longer a woman who had an abortion. I am a mother who lost a child.

If you would like to contact Kathy you can find her on Facebook….Kathy Robbins. If you would like a CD of the interview let me know. What a Ministry Kathy has.

Pastor Steve Smothermon was with me during NM News and Views then at 4:25 and we continued talking about FORGIVENESS.

Pastor Steve made it clear that unless we forgive others, our prayers will not be answered.

Proverbs 1:28 “Then they will call on me, but I will not answer; They will seek me diligently but they will not find me.

Proverbs 28:9 He who turns away his ear from listening to the law, Even his prayer is an abomination.

James 4:1 What is the source of quarrels and conflicts among you? Is not the source your pleasures that wage war in your members?

Pastor Leonard Navarre put me through a study of why our prayers are hindered. I have a whole list of scriptures that I can provide you if you contact me.

I leave you with this…….Rebelling against God………will hinder your prayers……….Rebelling against God’s Word, His 10 Commandments…..your prayers will be hindered or as Pastor Steve said, they will not be answered.

Scriptures on Rebelling against God……Duet. 1:45; I Sam. 14:37 28:6

Repent of any sin you have in your life.

I have many people coming to me for help…….they have problems…….One of the first things to do is look at our lives………is our Walk with Jesus Christ in line with HIS Word. Or are we outside of God’s Word?

What does God’s Word say about the life we are living today?

As Pastor Steve said last night, “Obey God and Forgive”………Steve said that is when we are in line with God, when we Obey HIM and we forgive others.

Yesterday for me was a very emotional day on the air because FORGIVENESS is so HUGE!

Study what I just shared with you, share it PLEASE! If we would forgive others and ourselves and Obey God , OH My! What a life for Christ we would live!

In my 35 years in Radio, it was one of the most POWERFUL days!!!!! My thanks to Kathy and Pastor Steve for impacting the Kingdom!

I encourage you to share this CUP with many……UNFORGIVESNESS PLUGS UP OUR DIRECT LINE TO GOD! I am also talking about forgiving yourself!

Ray has this AWESOME writing for us on Craving Jesus Christ in our lives…..fit’s right in with our subject today……

The life of Christ
The only life that has ever won the spiritual war and defeated satan on his own turf is the resurrected life of Christ. Satan got his backside handed to him at the cross and the resurrection of Christ took away his favorite tool, the fear of death.
Hebrews 2: 14 Therefore, since the children share in flesh and blood, He Himself likewise also partook of the same, that through death He might render powerless him who had the power of death, that is, the devil, 15 and might free those who through fear of death were subject to slavery all their lives.

We fervently teach that when someone turns to Christ for salvation all of their sins past present and future are forgiven. And this is a precious truth we all trust in. But we should never stop our understanding of salvation there because the key to living a victorious life in the midst of relentless demonic attack is the life of Christ. The very resurrected life of Christ comes to indwell each one of us at salvation. It is by trusting in the life of Christ inside of us that we have more than enough power to live the life God desires for us

Dear KKIM/KARS family,

May the Peace and Strength of our LORD be with you and yours this day…….

Psalms 37:3-5 (NASB) “Trust in the Lord and do good; Dwell in the land and cultivate faithfulness. Delight yourself in the Lord; And He will give you the desires of your heart.Commit your way to the Lord, Trust also in Him, and He will do it.”

I love that old song…..ONWARD CHRISTIAN SOLDIERS…….and onward we go for our LORD!

WOW! WOW! Monday on NM News and Views Marita Noon who speaks on energy issues all over the United States was with me, outstanding information for us,and then last night Pastor Larry Moss, or as I call him, BIG BEAR, (Larry Moss, Paul Holt, Mark Tross, Leonard Navarre and Bill Ruhl are the best around in giving us the Biblical lens into Foreign Affairs, all Pastor’s of the KKIM News Team! PRAISE GOD!) was with us sharing insight into IRAN and it’s intent to destroy the United States. Iran is tightly knitted together with the Mexico Drug Lords. The reason I bring this up is the LORD has called us here at the Radio Ranch and the CUP to be Salt and Light and the information that is given out over KKIM and the CUP is not found in many places. IRN/USA Radio Network interviewed me and Pastor Steve Smothermon on Monday asking us why we speak out? Why are we going against the darkness?…….we do so because it is Biblical! We here at KKIM and the CUP take it right to our soul the calling the LORD has placed on us…..it is not of us….but of the LORD….HE has called us to do what we do for HIM! We have over a Dozen Pastor’s that serve on our News Dept. PRAISE GOD! FOR GOD’S GLORY ALONE! Let us BOAST only in our LORD for what HE is doing! AMEN! AMEN!

Today Sharon shares one of her favorite stories with you that you may want to print out and include it in your Christmas Cards……What a solid message for us all! By the way would you please consider sending us some of your favorite stories? It would be great to share them with everyone here at the CUP! We would love to hear from you! Jerry even shares a good clean joke with us today!

My friend Jerry from Edgewood, NM and Valley View Christian Church, sent me this Minnesota joke, you see Jerry is from Wisconsin, a CHEESE HEAD, and they love to poke fun at Minnesota!!! LOL! LOL! This is one that will start your day out right!!!!

I love good clean humor! Keep them coming Jerry! We have a lot of Readers from the CUP in Minnesota! I am sure they will get a kick out of this! LOL! LOL! LOL! Sharon and I sure did!

Jerry also had this comment about TIM TEBOW………

DEWEY: FROM EXPERIENCE I WOULD LIKE TO SAY, I NEVER LIKED BEING IN 2ND PLACE. AS FOR TIM TEBOW, HE KNOWS THAT 2ND PLACE IS GOOD, AFTER ALL 1RST PLACE IS FOR OUR LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST. TIM KNOWS THAT OUR LORD WILL ALWAYS BE 1RST. I KNOW I WILL ALWAYS BE 2ND AND I KNOW I CAN LIVE WITH THAT. JERRY

PRAISE GOD JERRY Great words! I can’t wait to see Tebow play again! When are the Bronco’s on TV again?

I have to say this: Happy Hour for me is when I get to go home to Sharon and the doggies! How can people find Happy Hour in the Bar?

I am still learning………I love to learn…….I love that God can show me the way through reading HIS Word and sending me the Holy Spirit!

From Max Lucado…..

Keep Your Eyes on the Shepherd Posted: 13 Dec 2011 10:01 PM PST The Lord is my shepherd—He makes me to lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside the still waters. Psalm 23:2 Keep your eyes on the Shepherd! The Shepherd of the 23rd Psalm. In the second verse, David the poet becomes David the artist. His quill becomes a brush, his parchment a canvas, and his words paint a picture. A flock of sheep on folded legs, encircling a shepherd. Bellies nestled deep in the long shoots of grass. A still pond on one side, the watching shepherd on the other. “He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters” (Psalm. 23:2 NKJV). Note the two pronouns preceding the two verbs. He makes me … He leads me … Who is the active one? Who is in charge? The Shepherd. The shepherd selects the trail and prepares the pasture. The sheep’s job—our job—is to watch the Shepherd. Sharon wants to share this story…..it is one of her favorites….I am so blessed how Sharon helps me put the CUP together each day…..There is an extreme blessing of a husband and wife working together for the LORD! There is so much Godly love! I see it when I see Pastor’s and their wives working together for the LORD! I see it when we have married couples working in a Ministry that they have founded in our LORD or working for a Ministry! I also see it when I see couples walk hand in hand into the Church, Marriage is so Holy, Holy, Holy, AMEN! ……..Here is Sharon’s story that she prays is a blessing to you…….Great Christmas message………FOR GOD’S GLORY ALONE! The Difference Between Rich and Poor One day a father of a very wealthy family took his son on a trip to the country with the firm purpose of showing his son how poor people can be. They spent a couple of days and nights on the farm of what would be considered a very poor family. On their return from their trip, the Father asked his son, “How was the trip?” “It was great, Dad.” “Did you see how poor people can be?” the father asked. “Oh Yeah” said the son. “So what did you learn from the trip?” asked the father. The son answered, “I saw that we have one dog and they had four. We have a pool that reaches to the middle of our garden and they have a creek that has no end. We have imported lanterns in our garden and they have the stars at night. Our patio reaches to the front yard and they have the whole horizon. We have a small piece of land to live on and they have fields that go beyond our sight. We have servants who serve us, but they serve others. We buy our food, but they grow theirs. We have walls around our property to protect us, they have friends to protect them.” With this the boy’s father was speechless. Then his son added, “Thanks dad for showing me how poor we are.” Too many times we forget what we have and concentrate on what we don’t have. What is one person’s worthless object is another’s prize possession. It is all based on one’s perspective. Makes you wonder what would happen if we all gave thanks for all the bounty we have, instead of worrying about wanting more. Take joy in all you have, especially your friends. Life is not measured by the breaths you take but by the moments that take your breath away. You may want to print that out and include it in your Christmas Cards! What a POWERFUL message! Please send us your favorite stories so we can share them here at the CUP! Let us hear from Pastor Leonard who also is a member of our News Dept…….Leonard has 2 very special prayer needs……. Good morning. Praying for you! SUPER CUP! I believe the “much to do” about Tebow is not about football but about his love for our Lord Jesus Christ. But, WOW, what a witness for our Lord. Couple prayer request! * Pls pray for Diana’s mom, Opal. She had cast put on her left hand. So now she can’t really do anything but just barely feed herself. Needs help doing everything else and I mean everything else. Still trying to make decision about Bee Hive assisted living or just keep her here and hire help. Prayers SO appreciated. *Pls join in praying for my Pastor friend, Chris Philbeck, who is an awesome minister and person. Cancer detected in his tonsil and spread to one lymph node. Please pray for him, his family and the doctors as they plan the process of moving forward. Thank you so much! love and prayers, Leonard Leonard Navarre Valley View Christian Church Licensed Church Consultant P.O. Box 990 Edgewood, NM 87015 Special Reporter: www.mykkim.com www.valleyviewnow.org leonard www.navarreministries.com 505-980-0141 We are praying Bro!!!! Love ya! Let’s get our Medical bag from Dr. Joe! PRAISE GOD! Do you suffer from gas and or bloating? Constipation or diarrhea? Fatigue? Headaches? Sugar cravings? All of these are signs that unhealthy bacteria have taken over too much real estate in your gut. Your lifestyle can and does influence your gut flora on a daily basis. Your gut bacteria are extremely sensitive to: Antibiotics Chlorinated water Antibacterial soap Agricultural chemicals Pollution A poor diet is another enemy to healthy gut bacteria, as eating sugar actually nourishes the bad or pathogenic bacteria yeast and fungi in your gut (which may actually do more harm than elevated blood sugar and insulin resistance). One of the major side benefits of eating a healthy diet is that it helps the beneficial gut bacteria flourish, which results in the restoration of your health. Eating fermented food will also help you to “reseed” your body with good bacteria. If you do not regularly consume the traditionally fermented foods below, a high-quality probiotic supplement from your health food store will provide similar benefits: Lassi (an Indian yoghurt drink, traditionally enjoyed before dinner) Fermented milk, such as kefir (a quart of unpasteurized kefir has far more active bacteria than you can possibly purchase in any probiotics supplement) Various pickled fermentations of cabbage, turnips, eggplant, cucumbers, onions, squash and carrots Natto (fermented soy) When choosing fermented foods, steer way clear of pasteurized versions, as pasteurization will destroy many of the naturally occurring probiotics. This includes most of the “probiotic” yogurts you find in every grocery store these days; since they’re pasteurized, they will be associated with all of the problems of pasteurized milk products and they typically contain added sugars, high fructose corn syrup (which you need to avoid at all costs), artificial coloring, or artificial sweeteners, all of which will only worsen your health. A high-quality probiotic is something you need to consider especially if you’re past the age of 50. Here’s what you need to discuss with the sales person at the health food store regarding your probiotic: That the bacteria strains in the product must be able to survive your stomach acid and bile, so that they reach your intestines alive in adequate numbers. That the bacteria strains must have confirmed health-promoting features. That the probiotic activity must be guaranteed throughout the entire production process, storage period and shelf life of the product. Tending to the bacteria in your gut is always an ongoing process, much like tending to a flower garden. Provided with the proper nourishment — fermented foods, a high-quality probiotic supplement, and avoidance of antibiotics and other environmental assaults — your gut bacteria will flourish and greatly reward you with good health. www.DrJoeFawcett.com Thanks Dr. Joe!

December 13, 2011. Be prepared for a joy uprising. Life has not been a bed of roses lately. Disappointments and challenges have popped up everywhere it seems. This is not what you have desired. But I tell you to release the joy that is within you. Recall to yourself how the Lord lives within your heart. Quote to yourself and out loud, “The joy of the Lord is my strength!” This a statement of fact, whether you feel like it or not. The joy that will give you daily strength is not your own joy but rather, it is the joy of the Lord. Therefore, release the brakes. Slip into an expression of His joy. Rejoice!

Not having enough money can cause big problems, but also having or spending too much can cause even greater problems. Buying or being involved in things that are not for your best interest will cause much anxiety. Guard against greed. I supply what you need and some of what you want. You ask Me for more when you don’t have enough, but you don’t come to Me for wisdom as readily when you have more than meets your needs. Moderation is the key. You understand My principle that when you give you will be given to, but also spend wisely what you have. Greed, abundance and prosperity are not the same. Luke 12:15 (NLT) “Then he said, “Beware!

Let’s have a Christmas giveaway here!

Good morning, Dewey:

Thank you so very much for requesting my book so you can promote it on your program. I’m so sorry that I could not make it personally that day. I had set an appointment to do a Prayer March that day and I wanted to get the books to you immediately. But I do want you to know how much I appreciate your love and kindness.

Because you sow so much love and kindness, I know that you reap in kind. “For God is not unjust so as to forget your work and the love which you have shown toward His name, in having ministered and in still ministering to the saints.” (Hebrews 6:10 NASB)

Thank you for the CUP. It is always so full!

Love and Shalom!

The Bears get TEBOWED!

YES! The BEARS GOT FORKED BY TEBOW!!!! LOL LOL!

Karen Rowe said this after reading the write up below on Tim Tebow……

Karen Rowe I saved this to my favorites and may print. Tebow makes me want to watch football! Also a bit sad at some of the comments … some people really don’t believe there is a God … makes me pray for them. Thanks for sharing this Dewey.

Karen I am not really a football fan, but like you, Tebow makes me want to watch. I watched the end of the Denver/Chicago game.WOW! The sports announcer that interviewed him at the end of the game, was really bothered by Tebow’s answers and when Tebow ended by saying God Bless you….did you see the disgust in the sports announcer’s face? The announcer turned quickly and left.

Tim Tebow is such Salt and Light! What a testimony! Let us all be Salt and Light!

Here’s a Secular news write up on Tim Tebow……..

Tim Tebow’s Gospel of Optimism

By FRANK BRUNI

CAN God take credit for the victories of a thick-set N.F.L. quarterback who scrambles in a weirdly jittery fashion, throws one of the ugliest balls in the game, completes fewer than half of his passes and has somehow won six of his team’s last seven games?
That’s a question that actually hovers over the miraculous success of the Denver Broncos quarterback Tim Tebow, and at this blessed juncture it’s a silly one, because the answer is unequivocal: Yes. Tebow is powered by conviction and operating on faith, and so are the teammates he’s leading. And you needn’t be an evangelical Christian (as he is), a seriously religious person or even a football fan to be transfixed and enlightened by his example. I speak as a football fan only when I say the following, which I never expected to: The mile-high messiah has a gospel for us all.
You’re most likely familiar with his story, but just in case: the Broncos were 1-4 when the coaches benched the first-string quarterback and started Tebow, and there was a sense that they did so because they’d lost hope for the season and figured that they might as well silence his pesky, persistent advocates by letting him try and watching him fail. Although he had been a superstar at the University of Florida, his physique and style of play weren’t supposed to translate to the pros. That, at least, was the conventional wisdom. And as a lifelong Broncos loyalist with a knot in my stomach, I shared it.
Tebow won his first game, despite a 15-point deficit with three minutes to go. He won all but one of the next six, often in squeaker finishes involving late comebacks. The Broncos are now 7-5 and have a good shot at the playoffs, especially if they knock off the Chicago Bears this weekend. They’re favored to do precisely that, partly because the Bears’ starting quarterback, Jay Cutler, is out with a bum thumb. During a conference call with reporters last week, Tebow was actually asked by a Chicago scribe to pray for the woebegone digit.
Which brings us back to religion. With Tebow there’s no getting away from it. He uses the microphones thrust in front of him to mention his personal savior, Jesus Christ, and has said that heaven is reserved for devout Christians. He genuflects so publicly and frequently that to drop to one knee in the precise way he does has been given its own word, along with its own Web site, where you can see photographs of people Tebowing inside St. Peter’s, in front of the Taj Mahal, on sand, on ice and even underwater.
That zeal doesn’t go over so well with many football enthusiasts, me included. Tebow performs a sort of self-righteous bait-and-switch — you come for scrimmages and he subjects you to scriptures — and the displeasure with that is also writ colorfully on the Web, in Tebow-ridiculing Twitter feeds and Facebook pages, one devoted entirely to snapshots through time of Tebow in tears. An emotional man, he has traveled a weepy path to this point.
But the intensity of the derision strikes me as unwarranted, in that it outdoes anything directed at, say, the Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, accused repeatedly of sexual assault, or other players actually convicted of burglary, gun possession and other crimes. In a league full of blithe felons, Tebow and his oppressive piety don’t seem like such horrendous affronts at all.
Besides which, to get lost in the nature of his Christianity is to miss the ecumenical, secular epiphanies in his — and the Broncos’ — extraordinary season. Their sudden turnaround isn’t just thrilling. It illustrates the limits of logic and the shortcomings of the most quickly made measurements and widely cited metrics.
In sports as in politics, business and so much else, we like to think that we’ve broken down the components of achievement and that, looking at those components, we can predict who (and what) will prevail. But if any football analyst at the start of this season had said that a quarterback averaging under 140 yards of passing a game — that’s Tebow’s sorry statistic — would have a 6-1 record as a starter and be considered the linchpin of his team, few people would have bought it.
BUT Tebow tends to have his worst 45 minutes of play when it matters least and his best 15 when it matters most. And while he makes many mistakes, their cost is seldom exorbitant. These aren’t so much skills as tendencies — inclinations — that prove to be every bit as consequential as the stuff of rankings and record books. He reminds us that strength comes in many forms and some people have what can be described only as a gift for winning, which isn’t synonymous with any spreadsheet inventory of what it supposedly takes to win.
This gift usually involves hope, confidence and a special composure, all of which keep a person in the game long enough, with enough energy and stability, so that a fickle entity known as luck might break his or her way. For Tebow that state of mind comes from his particular relationship with his chosen God and is a matter of religion. For someone else it might be understood and experienced as the power of positive thinking, and is a matter of psychology. Either way it boils down to stubborn optimism and bequeaths a spark. A swagger. An edge.
It’s easy to be pessimistic about optimism. When peddled generically by unctuous politicians, it can seem the ultimate opiate, a cop-out and fallback when there’s nothing more substantive to sustain you. But optimism can have an impact. It’s what radiates from Tebow and fires up the Broncos. And therein lies a lesson about leadership with a resonance beyond football.
After Tebow took over, the Broncos didn’t add a whole, half or even quarter roster of better players. But he told his teammates, “Believe in me.” And he must have done so with a persuasive charisma. They clearly have a renewed belief in themselves — and are performing better than before.
The Broncos are the talk of the league. More and more people are watching. And you could indeed say they’re tuning in to find out how far God can take a team. Because that’s just another way of saying how far grit can.
Let us keep Tim Tebow in our prayers!

Ladies, here’s how to get rid of that notorious “jiggle arm fat”.

Of all my years of being in the health care industry, the arm area (shoulders, triceps, and biceps) has proven to be a hotspot of attention for most women.

So why do a lot of ladies find their arms so “unbearable” in the first place?

The answer lies in the fact that like your hips and thighs, the back of the upper arm is a spot where women typically store fat.
Without healthy diet and exercise, the fat storage combined with flabby triceps muscles can leave you with the “jiggly” appearance most women “hate”. The good news is that upper-arm exercises with hand weights can provide some pretty quick gratification.

I have to say, though, that beyond looking good in whatever outfit you want to wear, having strong arms is a very good thing! If you regularly do upper body exercises, I guarantee you’ll get a kick out of how much stronger and self-reliant you’ll feel…instead of asking for help with those stubborn jars, you’ll be able to open them yourself…garbage bags and laundry baskets will feel lighter…picking up your toddlers or grandchildren will feel better, look better and be better.

If you start today and are consistent, you’ll feel stronger and look sleeker in 4 to 6 weeks.

Here are a few exercises to get you started…

Four Exercises for Sleeker, Stronger Arms

*For all four moves below, choose hand weights that are heavy enough to fatigue somewhere between 12-15 repetitions. If you can do 15 reps and feel like it is easy, try something a little heavier…but don’t overdo it either!

1. Front Shoulder Raise: Stand with your feet hip-width apart, holding weights down in front of your thighs, palms facing you. Keeping your elbows slightly bent, raise your arms up in front of you until they are parallel to the floor. Don’t shrug—keep shoulders relaxed and don’t raise your arms above shoulder level. Lower back to starting position.

2. Lateral Shoulder Raise: Standing with your feet hip-width apart, hold weights at your sides this time, palms facing each other. Keeping elbows slightly bent, raise arms straight out to the sides until they are parallel to the floor. Again do not go higher than your shoulder level. Lower back to starting position.

3. Biceps Curl: This is a classic. With feet hip to shoulder width apart and knees bent slightly, hold a weight in each hand with your arms down by your sides, palms facing forward. Bend your elbows to lift the weights toward your shoulders, stopping when they are at chest height, palms facing your body. Slowly lower back to the starting position.

4. Triceps Overhead Press: Stand with feet hip-width apart (or sit in a chair). Clasp one weight with both hands. Extend your arms straight overhead, elbows close to your ears. Bend your elbows to slowly lower the weight behind you. Keep your elbows close to your ears. Contract your triceps and straighten your elbows to return to the starting position.

Body Weight Exercises can also be very Effective:
Push-ups: Stretch out on the mat or floor, or if you are a beginner, start on your knees instead of your toes. Keep your hands under your shoulders and a little wider than shoulder-width. Bend your elbows to a 90-degree angle and lower your body, keeping your abs tight. Don’t sag in the low back – keep a neutral spine. This is also a great exercise to strengthen your abs and lose fat weight there, too.

Triceps dips: Sit on a bench, with your hands next to your thighs. Lift your butt off the seat and move your body so it’s slightly in front of the seat. Keep your knees slightly bent. Bend at the elbows and lower your body several inches. Keep your shoulders relaxed and elbows pointed back. Push back up to starting position.
