A 5 Mile Training Run In The Face Of A Challenging World
As I ran this morning I couldn’t help but think about the impact that #COVID19 is having on our world and not just with those infected, having died, or those secluding themselves bin protection. There is the global economic impact that I fear will also impact giving to those that have been in need. When there is a huge need for support of those that have lost there jobs right around you it seems challenging to be asking for money to send overseas for wells. The world challenges of poverty and access to clean water didn’t go away when the virus hit, those needs are still very much there and now more needs have been added on top. #HWI #Run4Water #WhyIRun8.5 Miles, It’s About The Purpose Not The Pace
Will you help make clean water a reality for children in Africa? Give today: https://timn.me/2Kx7NEr #HWI Having been a runner for about 4 years now I know how easy it can be to get caught up in times, paces, and having a good race. Being a part of Hope Water is about #WhyIRun which ultimately is about having a platform to share about the great need for clean water around the world, and specifically Africa. This morning as I ran I felt like just putting enjoying the run and focusing on my #Run4Water instead of worrying about how fast, or slow, I was going. I still had a distance as my target, and that was really the only thing I was concerned with. I am…- Daily Thoughts / Devotions/Studies / Family / Featured / Kids / Parenting
Devotions for Sacred Parenting – Day 7: A Season of Sacrifice
“Our kids, by their existence, make a legitimate spiritual claim on our time, our money, and our focus.” – Devotions for Sacred Parenting by Gary L. Thomas I was challenged today in how I approach being a Dad. Too often I choose to focus on everything but my kids. Our time is too short with our kids, and there will be years ahead when we will have all kinds of time to pursue other things. I will say that this is one of the reasons I wake up at 4am some days to get a run in as I make an effort to not let my running negatively impact my family. #parenting #sacrifice #responsibility Game Night With The Guys
Had a fun evening playing some Kemet with the guys. Took a long time to get through since most of us have not played enough to get a good strategy down. Played Kemet on 2018-07-27 at Eric Smithhart’s with 1) John (Naga Viper) as Yellow: 10 – Win! 2) Vince Isenhoff as Blue: 4 3) Eric Smithheart (new) as Red: 5 4) Tim (timnolte) as Black: 7Yes, It’s Another Run, But There is Snow
As my running has gotten harder I decided that sharing my runs would do a few things… #HWI #Run4Water #GroundhogMarathon #Garmin #Running #snowWho’s Your Best Friend?
When you simply hang out together … when you carve out time for your most important relationship… when you make a point of sharing the little day-to-day moments… the results of that in your marriage are profound. – Biblical Secrets to a Happy Marriage This morning during my devotions time I was challenged with how I think about my wife. I’d heard other couples talking about their spouse being their best friend but I’d never really given it much thought myself and sort thought friends were in a different group than my wife. My best friend was a guy that I have served with in ministry for years and was the best man in my wedding. However if there is anyone in my life that should…
