Day 30 of 500
Fitness
Psalm 28:7 The Lord is my strength and my shield;…He helps me. My heart leaps for joy…”
Fitness. My biggest struggle.
Spinach shakes. Quinoa salads. Dried green beans. All that is easy. Working out is not.
A simple truth in my life is, “If I don’t enjoy it, I’m not going to do it.”
I rarely laugh when working out. I think when I’m on the treadmill what I’m doing is the opposite of laughing. Lamenting maybe.
But if I am truly a “full gospel” Christian then I believe it all. That includes:
This is a sacred day before our Lord. Don’t be dejected and sad, for the joy of the LORD is your strength!” Nehemiah 8:10b
This has to be my theme song, “The Joy of the Lord is my Strength.”
I have to find something that I enjoy and that God enjoys watching me enjoy. Remember he’s our Father. Like any father He is happiest when His children are happy and healthy.
Get up, get moving and get happy!!!
Join with me as we repeat these words over and over until we believe them, “I Like to Move It, Move It!”
