Day 2

Fit- in 90days

This is day 1 of 90.

And during these next 90 days I want to have my spiritual, and physical but kicked.

I have always wanted to be closer to God, to have a deeper understanding of who He is, to know more of the bible by heart... and more importantly to (as Paul challenged us ) live a life worthy of the Call. I have also always wanted to be in better shape... physically. I have never been extremely overweight, but then again I haven't really ever been satisfied with my physique either! - Don't get me wrong, I am a handsome man, and I have a pretty healthy self image - Cuz God made me and God doesn't make junk. I just want to be a better steward of the resources God gave me! and This blog is my "accountability partner". And if anyone else reads this... you can be as well.

Here Goes

Day 1.

October 12, 2010

i read this morning in Jeremiah 20:8-9, and jeremiah says that he literally can not contain the words that God has placed on his heart. In spite of the fact that people around him mock and threaten him for the very words he is speaking. "...but if I say i'll never mention the Lord or speak his name, His word burns in my heart like a fire. It's like fire in my bones! i am worn out trying to hold it in. - I want that kind of passion for the message that God has placed on my heart. Matt. 28:19 "therefore, go and make disciples of all nations..." And then in 1 Thess. 5:5-19

Paul challenges the Followers of Christ- you are children of the light and day. Stay alert and be clearheaded, honor your leaders - obey, and support them, don't be lazy..., encourage those who are timid. Take care of the weak, be patient with all. -never stop Praying (don't ever let anything separate you from the Holy Spirit - don't stifle Him with foolishness), always be joyful, thank God for everything you have! Hold onto what is good. Stay away from every kind of evil. - that is a lot to take in, but still simple instructions that will help you remain firm and unshakable in your faith! - I want to be like these guys when i grow up.

Physical.

I bought p90x on ebay... got a really good deal too, anyway i started today. and It is going to be tuff! Not only are the workouts hard... but the dietary part is very strict as well. It's going to take a lot of discipline but i am excited about it! In Hebrews 12 the disciple/apostle says that he "runs the race with endurance. and That is what I want in my relationship with Christ and in my Physical training - Endurance, and Follow Through.

So Today

Day 1.

Chest and Back

- a lot of pull ups, and push ups , with 2-3 dumbell excercises - ( I have never been great at either So it was a challenge) They show you "easier ways" (I use that term lightly b/c - even the "easy" way is not that easy!) to do the pull ups by placing one foot on the back of a chair to help you pull up. I had to use the chair... b/c I could only do about 1 pull up without (FOR NOW!) but I am committed!
