Hello Everyone!!   I hope all is well and that this week is off to a great start! This week, we're actually just going to get right into it.  Sunday, First Lady delivered an AMAZING Word on CAPACITY , specifically concerning OVERFLOW . She organized it into 3 points: OBEDIENCE SUBMISSION AVAILABILITY - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -  Overflow: verb.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hello WOPCC Family & Friends!! I certainly hope all is well, especially coming off last week's fast. How was it? Any #CapacityChallenge wins you all would like to share? I invite you to comment below with some things you got from the challenge. I want to continue to challenge you though. I challenge you to not to jump right back into the habit you fasted from to the extent you were enjoying it. After all, there is a reason you fasted from it, right?

Example: If you're vegan, don't say you're fasting from meat. That's not a fast; that's a lifestyle. For those who have already been fasting, have you checked in with your accountability partner? There's no point i...
