Here is today's communion meditation.

 Yesterday we talked about a baseball coach I once had that could transform a hitter almost instantly. He would do this by giving them a bigger goal, a precise plan of how to achieve the goal, and then help them develop the mechanics to execute the plan. Everything was in alignment. 

A huge part of his system was setting up the filter of what the hitter was to swing at, and which pitches to let go. He would have the hitter focus only on pitches that he could hit with power. The hitter was to let everything else go, even if it was a strike, which was very counterintuitive. 

I have seen it over and over, that by setting up the filter, the hitter would become much more focused, and his power would increase instantly. 

The same is true in just about every area of life. We can set up filters of exactly what we are looking for, and let the other stuff go. This increases our focus on power instantly. 

In today's communion we are asking God to help us understand filters and to set up filters for our life, so that our focus and power increase instantly. 

Today's Health and Fitness Tip

In our nutrition we can set up filters. For example, a good filter could be eating balanced meals and staying hydrated. This becomes the focus and we say "no" to things that don't help us move toward the goal. 

 I am praying for you.
