Measure of Faith
 

Hello, barrel racers! How’s your day??? I created this page to express my appreciation to all those who have inspired me along the way and for those who continue to encourage me each day.

I love, love, love training and riding barrel horses! It’s my life. My heart beat races just thinking about it. But, there is one thing in life that is even more exciting for me to talk about… and that’s Jesus!

My life today is so far beyond what I ever dreamed. Being raised in a church as a child didn’t make me a Christian. I was pretty much clueless about why I was there and just sort of followed the crowd. It wasn’t until my early twenties that I realized I needed help with every part of my life. With a strange curiosity, I started asking questions and hanging out with a few friends at a local cowboy church.

Today, I look back and see how God reached down and saved me. I am so thankful, too. I have learned to trust God in all settings and talk to Jesus everyday. Have you ever heard, “You get what you pray for”? I love that saying and it helps me remember James 4:2, ‘You have not because you ask not.’

I’ve learned to bathe everything in prayer. And, I encourage each of you to ask for God’s help. Whatever it is. You must be interested in barrel racing, or you wouldn’t be here on my page… so if you have a particular horse need… ASK! If you have a family need, financial need, health, whatever. Even if you think it’s silly. Try it. Talk to Jesus and ask for God’s favor. Then, don’t doubt that He hears you. If you pray in Jesus’ name, He’s going to hear you.

Now. BELIEVE. Believe you will receive. Visualize having what it is you just asked for. Don’t be wishy-washy. Don’t say, “Well I hope that works.“ If anyone says to me ever again, “I hope.” I think I’m going to scream! (I catch myself using that word sometimes and it drives me nuts.) Start believing the word of God. Practice switching your words. Any time you feel like saying I HOPE, change it immediately to I BELIEVE.

Thanks for visiting my favorite page. Check out the list of goodies below - they’re sure to brighten your day! I also want to share my book club. The way I see it… if you care enough to read a text book that helps you through school, why stop there? Why not pick up good book that could help you through life???

Blessings,

Kendra
