G-UP! Ephesians 6:13~18

13Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. 14Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; 15And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 16Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. 17And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: 18Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;

One Year Ago

A little over a year ago I asked God how I could make a different kind of impact in ministry. At that time, I had been writing a blog a few times a month. Someone from my church shared that she wished that there was a place that she could go to see Bible Study notes because she often missed that service. It was then that God showed me Gear UP!

I shared the idea with my Bishop and Pastor and they allowed me to launch the Blog on February 23, 2010. Over this year I have matured through the Blog. When I look back at older posts I can see how God is yet growing me through the Word that comes forth at uE. I can see how He has changed my heart and my mind. I can chronicle my struggles and when I let go of those struggles. This experience has been life changing for me.

I want to say a sincere and warm "Thank YOU" to each person that reads G-UP! and encourages me to keep on. I thank my Bishop and Pastor for seeing the value in this ministry effort. I thank my church family for all of their support.

The second year of G-UP! will be exciting as we continue our collaboration with College Connect, host guest bloggers, continue to bring you excerpts from Bible Study and Sunday Morning services, and introduce the Holy Hot Topic!

This year I really hope that more people will respond to the blog topics and as we continue to grow and reach new people I pray that God will keep growing G-UP! so that His will, His way and His Word prevails.

Thank you so very much,

Shannon A. Robinson
