Ended up to be a good day!

So today started off as a normal day, I woke up, showered and went to work. On Tuesdays we have staff meetings and today Matt wanted to love on the staff. Well he is usually pretty creative, and last year he took us to Sports Chalet to go school shoe shopping! It was so awesome, so this year was again a surprise, but we went back to Sports Chalet! I bought some really nice running shoes! I am hoping that it will inspire me to work out on a more regular basis! So it was just a normal day and then we were spoiled! I felt very loved and appreciated! Now I just have to put them to use. So tonight I went running for about 2 miles! The little plus part that is under the Nike Swoosh means that I can place a sensor in my shoe that will link to my ipod and keep track how far I have run! Pretty cool. So today was awesome...

Yesterday was also another great day that I didnt get to post about! I had the morning off and just stayed home, read, studied, did some homework and then went into work for a few meetings. I was able to spend a good amount of time praying, reading and singing to God! It was awesome! Tomorrow night I am speaking about Galatians 5 and in there are the commands that are given to us that will prove we are being Christ like. And tomorrow night is specifically on kindness. Which if oyu have ever been around Jr high and High school students you know kindness is not something they specialize in! So hopefully they will get a few tools and ways they can work on being kind to eachother and others and through that people will see Christ.

This is really the biggest disconnect for people that don't believe in Christ for those that do. It is that when we act in a way that does not portray Christ accurately, they automatically assume that this is who Christ is, and he is a jerk, so I dont want to be a part of that! And that is not true, if we as humans could accurately portray Christ as who He truly is then the entire world would follow him, but we dont! Anyways, that is why I feel it is so imporantant to instill into our young adults virtues and characteristics of Christ!
