If at first you do not succeed, try, try again!
Only those who dare to fail greatly can ever achieve greatly
You never really lose until you quit trying.
Remove failure as an option
Wrestle every match like it is the last one you are going to wrestle.
Every time you are not practicing, someone else is, when you wrestle them, they will win.
Before you can win, you have to believe you are worthy.

dreams
Dreams are what you make them, it all depends on you. If you really want it bad enough, desire can make them true. You can dream about most anything, but dreams will not get it done, when you bust your butt and dreams come true, is when you will have your fun!
quote
If you say, “I can’t” you won’t.
If you say, “I quit” you lose.
If you say, “I’ll try”
You might just win;
But you have the power to choose.
If you say, “I quit” you lose.

You might just win;

annoying things?
As you might know, the head of a company survived 9/11 because his son started kindergarten.
Another fellow was alive because it was his turn to bring donuts.
One woman was late because her alarm clock did not go off in time.
One was late because of being stuck on the NJ Turnpike because of an auto accident.
One of them missed his bus.
One spilled food on her clothes and had to take time to change.
One’s car wouldn’t start
One went back to answer the telephone.
One had a child that dawdled and did not get ready as soon as he should have.
One could not get a taxi.
The one that stuck me was the man who put on a new pair of shoes that morning, took the various means to get to work but before he got there, he developed a blister on his foot. He stopped at a drug store to buy a Band-Aid. That is why he is alive today.
Now when I am stuck in traffic, miss an elevator, turn back to answer a ringing telephone…
All the little things that annoy me;
I think to myself
“This is exactly where God wants me to be at this very moment.”
Next time your morning seems to be going wrong
The children are slow getting dressed
You can’t seem to find the car keys
You hit every traffic light
Don’t get mad or frustrated
It may be just that God is at work watching over you
May God continue to bless you with all those annoying little things and may you remember their possible purpose
AMEN.

Carman - The Champion - Absolute BestShare
In the vast expanse of a timeless place,
Where silence ruled the outer space,
Ominously, towering it stood,
The symbol of a spirit war
Between the one name Lucifer,
And the Morning Star, The ultimate of good.
Enveloped by a trillion planets,
Clean as lightning and hard as granite,
A cosmic coliseum would host the end
Of the war between the lord of sin and death,
And the Omnipotent Creator of man's first breath,
Who will decide who forever will be the Champion.
The audience for the 'Fight of the Ages' was assembled and in place.
The angels came in splendor from a star.
The saints that had gone before were there: Jeremiah, Enoch, Job.
They were singing the song of Zion, on David's harp.
The demons arrived, offensive and vile,
cursing and blaspheming God
Followed by their trophies dead and gone.
Hitler, Napoleon, Pharaoh, Capone,
Tormented and vexed and grieved
Waiting for their judgment from the throne.
Then a chill swept through the mammoth crowd
And the demons squealed with glee
As a sorid, vulgar, repulsive essence was felt.
Arrogantly prancing, hands held high, draped in
a sparkling shroud
Trolled by demons, Satan, ascended from Hell.
Then Satan cringed, the sinners groaned,
the demons reeled in pain
As a swell of power like silent thunder rolled
with a surge of light beyond intense,
illuminating the universe, in resplendent glory appeared
the Son of God
Then a persona, yes, extraordinaire appeared in center ring
God the Father would oversee the duel.
opening the Book of Life, each grandstand hushed in awe
as majestically He said "now, here's the rules:
you'll be wounded for their transgressions
bruised for iniquities
when He said "by His stripes they're healed", the devil shook.
he screamed "sickness is my specialty. i hate that healing junk!"
God said- "you shut your face, I wrote the book."
Then the Father looked at his only Son and said
"You know the rules, Your blood will cleanse their sin
and calm their fears"
Then He pointed His finger at Satan and said
"and I know you know the rules.
you've been twisting them to deceive my people for years."
Satan cried, 'I'll kill you Christ, you'll never win this fight.'
The deamons wheezed, 'Thats right, there ain't no way'
Satan jeered, 'You're dead meat Jesus... I'm gonna bust you up tonight'
Jesus said, "Go ahead, make my day"
The bell, the crowd, the fight was on
And the devil leaped in fury
With all his evil tricks, he came undone
He threw his jabs of hate and lust
A stab of pride and envy
But the hands that knew no sin blocked every one
Forty days and nights they fought and Satan couldn't touch Him
Now the final blow saved for the final round
Prophetically, Christ's hands came down and Satan struck in vengence
The blow of death fell Jesus to the ground
The devils roared in victory
The saint's shocked and perplexed
As wounds appeared upon His hands and feet
Then Satan kicked Him in His side and blood and water flowed
And they waited for the ten count of defeat
God the Father turned His head
His tears announcing Christ was dead
The ten count would proclaim the battles end
Then Satan trembled through his sweat
In unexpected horror, yet
As God started the count by saying:
"10"
Hey...hey wait a minute God
"9"
Stop You're counting wrong!
"8"
His eyes are moving!
"7"
His fingers are twitching!
"6"
Where's all this light coming from?
"5"
He's alive!
"4"
Oh No!
"3"
(Carman) OH YES!
"2"
HE HAS
"1" WON
He has won
He's alive forevermore
He is risen
He is Lord
He has won
He has won
He is alive forever
He is risen
He is Lord
Proclaim the news in every tongue
Through endless ages and beyond
Let it be voiced from mountains loud and strong
Captivity has been set free
Salvation bought for you and me
Cause Satan is defeated
And Jesus
Is
The Champion!

prayer
Dear Lord,
I thank You for this day. I thank You for my being able to see and to hear this morning. I'm blessed because You are a forgiving God and an understanding God. You have done so much for me and You keep on blessing me. Forgive me this day for I have sinned. I ask now for Your forgiveness.
Keep me safe from all danger and harm. Let me start this day with a new attitude and plenty of gratitude. Let me make the best of each and every day and give my best in all that is put before me.
Clear my mind that I can hear from You. Broaden my mind that I can accept all things that are of You. Let me not whine and whimper over things I have no control over.
Let me continue to see sin through Your eyes and acknowledge it as evil. And when I sin, let me repent, and confess with my mouth my wrong doing, and receive the forgiveness of God.
And when this world closes in on me, let me remember Jesus' example to slip away and find a quiet place to pray. It's the best response when I'm pushed beyond my limits. I know that when I can't pray out loud, You listen to my heart.
Continue to use me to do Thy Will. Continue to bless me that I may be a blessing to others. Keep me strong that I may help the weak and unsaved.
Keep me uplifted that I may have words of encouragement for others. I pray for those that are lost and can't find their way. I pray for those that are misjudged and misunderstood. I pray for those who refuse to share a word from You. I pray for those who don't know You intimately.
I pray for those that don't believe ... But I thank you that I believe.
I believe that You change people, and I pray for all my sisters and brothers. For each and every family member in their households. I pray for peace, love and joy in their homes that they are out of debt and all their needs are met.
I pray that everyone knows there is no problem, circumstance, or situation greater than You, Lord. Every battle is in Your hands for You to fight. I pray that these words be received into the hearts of every eye that sees them and every mouth that confesses them willingly.
Lord I love you and I need you, come into my heart, please.
This is my prayer.
In Jesus' Name,
Amen.

a wrestler's biggest fan
by Jo-Ann Innis
That's my little boy,
Mat two, He's on deck,
He's the one who tries to look so confident,
While I sit here a wreck,
I sit watching nervously,
Biting my nails and shaking in my seat
Praying for a victory and not a quick defeat
Please don't let him be hurt, Please let him be all right
After all this is why he practices so hard, Almost every night
I'll just suffer through it and give him my support
Wondering why sometimes, he ever chose this sport
But when it's finally over
and he makes it through "the three"
Nothing can beat the look on his face,
That look of VICTORY!
The look that says "I did it, hey mom did you see?"
And when the ref holds up his hand,
I know why he chose this sport
And when the victory goes the other way,
I still give him my support
There's always next time as long as you try,
A mom never fails to say
You're always a champion in my eyes son,
and you'll always be that way
A mom is a wrestler's biggest fan,
Cause she knows what's in his heart
She knows his dedication and how he tries so hard,
It's hard for a mom to sit and watch As her son gets pinned
And it's hard not to get emotional
as you watch your baby win
Seeing his eyes search for you
while you're sitting in the stands
Making sure you saw every move turn out
just the way he planned
Because every wrestler knows,
That his mom is his biggest fan!
