Brief Hiatus - blog revival/makeover
Going on a brief hiatus while I revive my blog and give it a slight makeover.
Stay tuned!
You almost never regret going for a run, but you ALWAYS regret not going for one.
Unknown. We say “almost” because if you’re on the cusp of injury or sickness, you may actually regret going for a run.

For beautiful eyes, look for the good in others; for beautiful lips, speak only words of kindness; and for poise, walk with the knowledge that you are never alone.

Memory Verses
This year, I am participating in the LPM Siesta Scripture Memory Team. Anyone know Beth Moore? (I chuckled as I wrote that, of course you know Beth Moore).
Well my lovelies, this Memory Team is with Beth Moore, and thousands of women across the world. Pretty cool, right? We memorize 1 scripture every 15 days (two a month). Every 1st and 15th of the month we share our verses, write them in our notebook and have at it! It is amazing, and the power of having scriptures sketched in your mind is unparalleled. I wanted to share my verses with you (I’m typing these by heart).
“For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “Plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” - Jeremiah 29:11
Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in you. Show me the way I should go, for to you I lift up my soul. - Pslam 143:8
Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need. - Hebrews 4:16
The Lord Almighty has sworn, “Surely, as I have planned, so it will be; and as I have purposed, so it will stand.” - Isaiah 14:24
Let us not grow weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. - Galatians 6:9
If you’d like to take part in the LPM Siesta Scripture Memory Team click the link. It is NOT too late, and I absolutely recommend you take part. It is so worth it.
I’m not going to lie..
I am a wine-o.
And a runner.
And this event is a dream come true!
Sign me up, because I’m SOLD!
Most Wonderful Love…
“Everyone longs to give themselves to someone, to have a deep soul relationship with another, to be loved thoroughly and exclusively!
But God to the Christian says, No, not until you are satisfied, fulfilled, and content with me alone. Not until you give yourself totally and unreservedly to me and experience an intensely personal and unique relationship with me alone. I love you, My child, and until you discover that only in Me can your complete satisfaction be found, you will not be capable of the perfect human love that I have planned for you. You will never be totally happily united with another until you are united with me, exclusive of anyone or anything else, exclusive of any desires or longings.
I want you to stop planning, stop wishing, and allow me to give you the most thrilling plan existing - one you cannot begin to imagine. I want you to have the best. Please allow me to bring this to you. You just keep watching me, expecting the greatest things. Keep experiencing the satisfaction that I am. Keep listening and learning the things I tell you. Just wait, that’s all! Don’t be anxious. Don’t worry. Don’t look around at the love others have gotten or the things I have given them. Don’t even look at the things you think you want. Just keep looking off and away, up to me, or you will miss what I want to show you!
And then, when you are ready, I will surprise you with a love far more wonderful than any you would dream of! You see, until you are ready, and until the one I have for you is ready (and I am working even at this moment to have both of you ready at the same time), until you are both satisfied exclusively with me and the life I have prepared for you, you wont be able to experience the pure beautiful love that exemplifies your relationship with me - this is Perfect Love!
And dear one, I want you to have this most wonderful love. I want you to see in the flesh a picture of your relationship with me. I want you to be able to enjoy materially and concretely the everlasting union of beauty, perfection and pure love that I offer you in myself. (It is possible!) Know that I love you utterly. I am God, believe me, trust me, wait on me…and be satisfied!”
I needed to hear this!

We runners are all a little nutty, but we’re good people who just want to enjoy our healthy, primitive challenge. Others may not understand running, but we do, and we cherish it. That’s our only message.

I am a runner at heart. And I love the Lord with all my heart. Here's to enjoying the simple things in life, all while shining His light as bright as I can each and everyday. Which is mostly spent getting ready for a run, going for a run, or recovering from a run.
