This as was forwarded to me in an email. And I love it.
However it's not the original Nike Ad, but I love it much better than the original.


While on the Nike Blog, I saw this one as well.

Yes I have a big butt and thunder thighs.
And they will soon be toned from lots of rowing, box jumps, and kettlebell swings.

"It is not the critic who counts:not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who,at best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory or defeat." Theodore Rosevelt - Paris, Apr 23,1910

Biblical Strength

I found this little tidbit here at Waveside Church in Malibu California..

I figured since the title of this blog is “Strength for the Week” it was about time that I cover the word strength from a biblical perspective. When you hear the word strength most often it is physical strength comes to mind but the title of these weekly encouragements and what the Bible addresses most often as strength has more to it. 2Corinthans 12:9 says, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” The word strength comes from the Greek work dunamis which is a word for dynamic power. It is where we get our word dynamite. When you are at your wits end in a situation that is the opportune time to call on the strength of the Lord. Now, speaking from a guys perspective we tend to not make a habit of admitting we are weak so that is the first hurdle to clear before being able to access God’s power. Push pride aside to receive dynamic power from the creator of the universe! With God’s strength comes the power and ability to make necessary changes or adjustments for any situation. “In our weakness He is made strong.” God’s dynamic power can equip you to overcome any struggle you are in. Step aside, admit your shortcomings and watch the creator of strength perfect those things that concern you.

Just some food for thought.
