~Having a purpose for our endurance, the process to the outcome becomes obtainable~
I just completed my first 31 days in a 90-day challenge called “Last 90 Days” with Rachel & Dave Hollis. I made it 31 days with no coffee. So, what gave me the endurance to follow through? I had a purpose to complete something that I knew would be a challenge, but it was worth that sacrifice. Because I cut coffee out completely, I took away any temptation to have it.

(This blog post is not at all about what I had planned for it to be about but God had a different plan. )
I have had a difficult week. I am not going to go in to the details of what made it difficult because that would give Satan glory and this blog is NOT about him! I have just seemed to have one trouble after another and just when I have felt like one situation is better something else would happen. So today I want to share with you how the intentions of my friends have blessed me and brought me joy.
#mywhy #runforgod #halfmarathon by: Julie Wicker
I recently shared my running journey with you all back in June. A quick recap, I started running in January through the Run for God bible study & 5k program. Once I reached my 5k goal in April, I kept pushing myself week after week to run farther. I had always planned on running the 5k in Georgetown’s Bridge to Bridge Run on 11/2/19. Over the summer I decided to challenge myself to sign up for the 12k. I kept pushing harder each week. When summer was over and I had surpassed a 12K, I was contemplating signing up for the half marathon.

“Finally , brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable-if anything is excellent or praiseworthy-think about such things.” Philippians 4:8 NIV
#hunger by: Julie Wicker
In finding your purpose or its purpose God gives you a hunger for something more. It’s in our hunger pains and sometimes spiritual famine that we find our desires, our joys, and our calling. The purpose then gets fed and God eventually brings that hunger back. It’s called the Journey of spiritual growth. How boring would life be if we continually felt full?
#purpose #waterwalkinggirls by: Deborah Ard
Why am I here? Why was I born? What does God want me to do with my life? What direction should I go? How many of you have ever asked one of these questions? I imagine at some point we all have. Years ago I participated in a study on The Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren. While many of us would have liked if the book had spelled out the right vocation for us it in fact helped to define our real purpose in life. If you haven’t read the book I highly recommend it.

What does praise mean? To express warm approval or admiration of; To express one’s respect and gratitude toward (a deity), especially in song.
