Don’t see the stretch you have to run. See the finish line.

For the record it seems I was 100% serious about my lifestyle change. I started on Saturday (I know it’s been three day, but it only takes 5 to make a habit). This morning I woke up, did warm up stretches. Got dressed went to work. Came home worked-out, stretched, had a shower (yes I showered this morning as well), made a protein shake and then studied for 2 hours. The problem is that now all I can think about are words that no one ever uses in sentences words like: castigate, augury, and contumacious (which I can be at times) and algebraic formulas. I am laughing right now because I realize this is not a bad problem to have. I am a little proud of all that God has allowed me to accomplish today. I am blessed because He walked me through my day and gave me the strength to say no to TV (which is not normally not a vice, however, 24 starts back today), when Jack’s back. He gave me the strength to turn off my cellphone and tune out my friends, so that I could accomplish the goals I had set forth for this day. I am blessed that He gave me the desire to workout even though I was tired. I am struck at how awesome God is, if we keep our commitment He’ll be faithful to see us to our goals.

“But if we confess our sins to Him, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all wickedness” (1 John 1:9).

So what’s the plan? As much as depends on me. Keep my promise.
