the BUFF life

FAITH: Choose to be still.

Stop the downward spiral of toxic thoughts that come from fear (aka False Evidence About Reality).

In the book, “Get Out Of Your Head,” author Jennie Allen proclaims that we have the opportunity to stop our spinning minds and escape toxic thought patterns. In order to do so, we must choose to be still with God and fight for alone time with Him. When we turn off the distractions and sit quietly before God, our thought lives change. Wake up 20 minutes earlier and sit quietly, then ask God, “Help me see things not as they seem to me, but as they truly are.” He loves you and wants to help you through every situation in life; you just need to let Him!

Welcome

to

‘The BUFF Life’!

BUFF = Believers. Uniting. Fitness + Food. Together we are a community and here I hope you will feel connected and encouraged through all things FAITH + FAMILY + FITNESS + FOOD!

FAMILY: Table talk.

Taking back the dinner table was what Pastor Mike Kramer discussed in his sermon at Prairie Heights Community Church in West Fargo. This is something my family truly values. It’s a time to slow down, talk and check-in with each other. Whatever time of day works for your family, try to schedule at least one meal together and use this time to get to know and learn more about these people you call family. We enjoy reading devotions at this time and have a box of fun questions that we take turns picking that everyone gets to answer. It’s fun and we cherish our table talks at the dinner table.

FITNESS: Try something new.

Commit to trying something new for the next six weeks. That’s it! Whether it’s an online fitness program, scheduling a time to walk or bike outside, or getting involved at a studio or gym, commit to doing it for the next six weeks. You’ll feel accomplished and energized to take on your next six-week challenge!
