Motivation




Tri training is awesome!  My motivation has become my running times.  Getting faster, getting through a run without looking at the time, and being able to breath just feels so good.  Last Sunday my goal was 2 miles in 20 min. I got 1.99 miles, I was so ticked.  This week, same goal, 2 miles in 19:45!  It was an amazing feeling, I actually even ran a little bit more after that just 'cause I could.  
Ministry training is equally as awesome.  God's slowly putting pieces of my "vision" puzzle together for me.  This is a major part of my motivation: "There is a church not too far from us that recently added a $25 million addition to their building. Our local newspaper ran a front-page story not too long ago about a study revealing that one in five people in our city lives in poverty."  I read that and almost started crying in the middle of Mardel.  Its on the back cover of "Jesus Wants to Save the Christians" I'm hoping to come up with $10 so I can buy it soon!!!
