a light bulb went off

01 April 2014

Last week I didn't do so well with my running plan. I was extremely tired all week and ended up running only 50% of my goals. I was getting discouraged and then Jeremiah encouraged me to go run 2 miles...  WHAT!?!?!  The last time I ran 2 miles was in December!!!


Well, a light bulb went off {once again}...  
"Just focus on what you need to do today, Amy, just run 2 miles"
...and I did it!

Matthew 6:34

"Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own."


It's easy to look ahead, to see all that needs to happen, all that needs to be done, all that is ahead...

It's so easy to focus on the future and get distracted on what I need to be doing {today}! 


God is so good to show mercy and to keep reminding me to focus on {today}. He will take care of my future when I live in obedience to Him {today}. 

Matthew 6:25-27, 33

25 “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes?26 Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27 Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?...  33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well"


P.S. I got a new light!
