These shoes.
These are my Ragnar shoes.
Bought on sale at Academy sports.
Took me farther than I ever ran before.
And still my feet hurt.
Because it was not the shoes that took me through the race, it was the group of men I ran with that pushed me to finish the race. It was not only their strength and encouragement but their faith and belief in me that I wouldn’t let them down. For example, I was waiting to get started on my 3rd leg, the longest leg I ran in the race, and the leg I was the most worried about going into the race. As I was getting ready to leave I looked over and all 3 of my teammates were on the phone talking to their wives. And what struck me is not that they were on the phone, or not pumping me up, but that they had the confidence in me to finish this leg without problem. They didn’t need to cheer me know because they already knew I was going to do it, even though I didn’t know it.  But they knew I wouldn’t let them down. As I was midway through the leg and realizingI hated running, and at that point life and everything else, their confidence in me kicked in and helped me through. In turn it was the same confidence and faith I had in them to finish their legs of the race.

Well I tell you this, it is the same faith and belief that God wants us to have in Him. Unfailing, unwavering belief that He is behind us pushing us to go forward, arms out to catch us when we fall, and  also in front of us leading the way. He has a plan for us, and when we put our faith in Him, He will do great things.

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all ways submit to him and he will make your paths straight” Proverbs 3:5

The Share (BOM):

Love with vs Love for. Too often we want to do FOR our family/friends/co-workers instead of doing things WITH them. “WITH” love encourages, models, walks beside, and holds people accountable. In F3 we have a model of what it looks like when others love us, hold us accountable, and encourage us through the tough times.

It was a great morning and the 25 strong pushed it and got better!

BOM: Lent is a 40 day season of repentance and renewal to ready ourselves to remember and celebrate the heart of the Christian gospel: the death and resurrection of Jesus (Good Friday and Easter). Lamentations 3: 1-8 & 21-24

At times we all enter periods of suffering. In those times it may feel like God is against you, that he is causing your suffering, and that he is ignoring your prayers. When this is the case, remember that he sent his one and only son to earth to die for our sins. Jesus suffered the ultimate suffering in order to enter into our suffering and pull us out of it.

Even through the tears of suffering, maintain hope in Jesus’ work on the cross, and the love that shows he has for us.

“It is hard to succeed when you keep beating up on yourself.  Understand that you are on a journey, and part of that journey requires failure, struggle, and pain.  So when you find yourself experiencing hard times, instead of criticizing yourself, see it as part of the process and stepping stone towards your goal.”  -Justin Su’a

“Planning”
“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
‭‭Jeremiah‬ ‭29:11‬

Our plans usually don’t work out exactly the way we want them to.  How many of us have had a grand idea of something and had it all planned out in our head or even on paper only to see it change completely when we try to execute it. …But what we don’t realize is that God’s plan is not always our plans. It may seem frustrating and even painful but Gods plan is so much greater than we can even grasp.  e.g. Relationships, work etc.  …So next time that we have something bust up our plans, we need to know what plan IS solid. HIS plan for us.
