I just thought that I would post a little ditty on here to get the ball rolling. I have recently had to scrap all of my carefully calculated marathon training schedules due to a knee injury. However, on each of them I was careful to choose a piece of scripture and ironically, November's shout out from the Lord goes a little something like this, "But those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not grow faint." Isaiah 40:31. Not only does this happen to be my favorite Bible verse, but it is so true to my life right now. I am so often lost in a sea of worries and making MY plans work. I want to soar , I want to run and go crazy and feel no limits. This verse actually helps me to day dream a little bit about heaven. It's going to be so amazing! No limits to how fast you can run, no limits to how high you can climb...truly our bodies will be perfected in all of our hearts desire for adventure! Now, the lesson for me today, if I want to experience even a smidge of that on this Earth, I need to lay these burdens down. Stop calculating my training schedule and start calculating my preparation for eternity with Christ. The best training schedules in the world are centered around ultimate goals and the goal of His glory cannot be surpassed by any other! WOOT!
