Gaining...

Gaining is not easy thing. I went to start up again two weeks ago and got hurt due to an unlabeled broken machine at my gym. I can tell you it is rather frustrating when all you can do is heal and begin again. Sometime what seems unattainable must be persevered through until you finally see results. For me that mean resetting the whole process all over again. With everything that is going on this is no easy task but, giving up as no longer and option for me. In self examination of my past giving up has always been the thing that hindered me.

Now I am stubborn and I will fully admit it and yet, in the past there has been many times I have just thrown in the towel due to injury, hurt feelings or not enough support. I have come to the point that I know that God is ultimately the only support I need for these challenges. If you want something bad enough reach out and go for it. I have read and watched countless stories on this and I want to be one of those triumphing stories myself.

The positive spin on all this is that I have been sharpening my mind again with all this off time. My studies of History for the CSET are progressing and I also made it into the Credential Program at Redlands University. I have found great enjoyment as I continue my journey learning about God's creation through science and studying the word.

My greatest recent achievement is that I have come up with a plan on how to channel my gifting into a ministry for God. This is probably the most exciting aspect of this journey. To my credit I also have picked up my guitar again so I can start playing and singing once more. The largest step will be writing. I know I have something to write but what?

Anyway remember if you fail. Dust yourself off and keep going forward. Till next time.

Things have to change lucky the first thing is that by next week all my ducks will be in a row for school.

As I prepare for my credential I have also been prepare to amp up to exercise. New work out plan, new food plan and same growth goal. As you all know I been researching how to put muscle on for my body type.

Been reading, studying and setting goals that is great. Yet I still have some goals to go. Have not been writing and because of some poor timed financial surprises I am still trying to get my budget on track. 

Still no quest is with out peril and no peril is with out solution. Andy Andrew's book The Lost Choice has really inspired me to action. Most of his books focus on that. Still a solid reminder is always necessary less we forget.

We always need to look to the present, learn from the past and aim for the future. 

All I know is I refuse to give up. I have God with me, my family to love and support and the kingdom to advance.

Till then let us continue in good cheer...
