Keep the pace...
Alright so today my roommate Sherry and her lovely parents graciously brought me back to my home town of Columbus. Once here I squished into a truck with my mom and two sisters and we made the trek down to the South side where we live at. But it was such a great ride and nice to be in the company of family. Sometimes living in Michigan I still get kind of home sick more so in the summer than the winter... But that is not the point. So my family, mom, sisters and I, are starting this weight loss challenge. Not that I feel like I have not been losing weight because I have, but they want to lose weight now too...I think I may have started a trend....finally. haha jk. So tonight Leah, my middle sister, and I decided we were going to go for a run and so we did. We did some interval running around our neighborhood which included some sprinting and jogging...it was good times. Then we finished it off with a cool down lap with my mom of walking.
So why am I telling you bout this? Well because for the first time I was the one leading my family onto better and healthier habits. My sister Leah was the first person who really inspired me to push myself and run, and to some extent she still does, especially on days I want to quit and throw in the towel. So it was totally the Lord that I got to exercise with her today and just encourage her to keep pushing through. It was so good and encouraging to me too! Then we came back to the house and grabbed my mom and she was totally down for it too, well walking that is haha. Also I got to see my dad today and we had fun with him. I have only been home one day and the Lord has just blessed me completely!
BE ENCOURAGED! God hears your prayers, your not alone, he has not abandoned you, he actually loves you so much!!!!
