Since “faith is the substance of things hoped for,” we need to know what it is
we’re hoping for! Hope is the blueprint your faith follows. Your faith needs a blueprint to
follow.#
A brief blueprint for the Christian Fitness program below.
What I would like to accomplish during the next three weeks on the Christian
Fitness Program:
Increase my energy and health__________________________________________________________
Focus on my lifestyle and God_________________________________________________________
These are habits I’d like to develop and ones I want to overcome (spiritually,
emotionally, mentally and physically).
I want to stop:
Wanting to carry on eating when full______________________________________________________
_____________________________________________________________________
And I want to start:
Finding more time for me and God_______________________________________________________
______________________________________________________________________
By continuing to follow the healthy guidelines of the Christian Fitness Program as
a lifestyle, one year from now I can see myself (spiritually, mentally, emotionally,
physically – write in the first person, “I see myself…”):
I see myself becoming more focussed and have more energy_______________________________

HOPE: A Spiritual FORCE
The desires, plans, goals and prayers you’ve just written down are your blueprint.
These are your hopes. Hope is not a wishy-washy “gee-wouldn’t-it-be-nice” sort of idea.
Hope is a spiritual force. In its purest biblical sense, hope means “earnest expectation.”
It carries with it the picture of a runner at top speed, pressing forward with intense
determination as she heads for the finish line only a nose away. She earnestly expects
to win. That’s hope.
