10.4.24 - it’s 4th quarter
Good morning ,
It’s Friday. I usually write to you on Wednesday or Thursday but it’s been a week. Our kids are on fall break and it completely through me off. My patience was tested multiple times and a few times the patience actually ran out.
On October 1, I was feeling so defeated by the week that had just started. I logged on Facebook and saw my old personal trainer post a work out challenge for October. I've been meaning to start working out since the beginning of the year but I haven’t been able to commit in the way I envisioned.
I was going on walks and I even doubled the time of my walks but it wasn’t the work out I needed.
So I started working out at home. And I started doing a little jog on my walks! Y’all I’m so excited.
After a week of challenges I finally started working out on October 1st. The first day of 4th quarter. May sound silly but this is such a huge win for me.
I’ve spent a lot of time this year focused on healing. I’ve worked on my mental health and going deeper with the Lord, but I’ve missed the mark on focusing on my physical health and that’s why I’m so excited.
2024 has been a year but the year is still happening. It's not over. There is still a whole quarter left to get disciplined in this area. As I was finishing my jog on Oct 1 I couldn’t help but think about what it means to be disciplined. To choose to do something even when you don’t feel like it because you know it needs to be done. That’s hard. Especially when no one is checking to make sure you did the thing you said you needed to do.
I want to be more disciplined. I’m disciplined in a lot of areas but I just felt the Holy Spirit nudging me “you need to get disciplined in working out.”
So I’ve added one more thing to my list. But I'm excited about it. I feel like this is going to help me more, not hinder me and I can’t help but wonder how I’ll see God show up during my work outs.
I want to ask you, what is one area you are ready to get disciplined in? What is holding you back? Why not just get started?
I appreciate you being a part of my community. It's always more than skin care :)
