ohhh triathon training, fasting and phones

I absolutely despise running. I don't know how this triathlon thing is going to work. I ran one mile yesterday. the last quarter mile was brutal I didn't want to finish. I'm gonna try for 1.5 on Saturday (and I'll food in my stomach then)

Speaking of a lack of food in my stomach the second day of a three day fast is not as bad as the first. Although I'm starting to lose grasp of what's in front of me and I cannot focus. God can work with me in any state. I feel peace already with some situations that I haven't felt real peace about in years. I just need to remain focused for the remainder of the fast and see what visions God will cast into my life.

Last but not least my phone shut off at 6am this morning. The way it shut off I can understand why Diahnne calls my life a sitcom.

If sinners be damned.

"If Sinners be damned, at least let them leap to hell over our bodies. If they will perish, let them perish with our arms about their knees, . Let no one go unwarned and unprayed for."-Charles Spurgeon

I've been thinking about if I live this way. If the sinners in my life are damned and I letting them go unwarned and unprayed for.

I repent for the lack of boldness and for the inaction. No one shall go unwarned or unprayed for.

yeah I'm nuts but can you hum.

two blog posts in one day whoo who. Who reads this leave a comment!
I wonder if I hummed a song if someone could tell me who sang it. here goes( hmmm. hmmm hmmmmmmmm. ohhh ohhh ohhhhhh.. your beautiful.) I know silly Moni that not humming But I need to know. its been in my head since 635am.

in my mind: thoughts on change

Change has a considerable psychological impact on the human mind. To the fearful it is threatening because it means that things may get worse. To the hopeful it is encouraging because things may get better. To the confident it is inspiring because the challenge exists to make things better.

I do not like change. I tend to fall into the fearful catorgory. At time like this though I'm optimistic in the sense of how could things get worse it could only get better from here.

Then of course the other shoe drops:-(

Which leaves me of course still being a hater of change but having to go through with it anyways because circumstances will not allow change not to occur. If only I could have change at my own course maybe I would be more willing to change.

I do find hope though from Jesus knowing that he is my strong tower and my refuge when thing are good and when things are bad keep me going when things are bad. Like today and yesterday and the day before. I've stopped (not entirely) looking at my life as a series of bad days full of change I don't care to happen and started to look at my days as the days the Lord has made And i am Glad and I rejoice.

Taking it back to the quote: without Jesus I am fearful of change, with Jesus I'm an confident.
