Working Hard To Make It Easy

Something I noticed during the run this morning was how far I’ve come with increasing my speed, but also lowering my heart rate at those faster speeds. I’ve had many training runs where this kind of speed would see my heart rate soar. I can see the results however of pushing that heart rate up on a regular basis has given my body the workout needed to actually lower my heart rate during those faster paced runs.

This morning during my prayer and worship time I immediately thought of the staff and kids and the impact that rainy season has on them. I also focused on the teams as they work on drilling new wells. Praying for safety and success as the teams work to put the wells in that the team raised money for.

    Kicking Off The Week With A Nice Run

    This morning was one of those slow to get out of bed mornings. Once I got out and started breathing in some fresh crisp morning air I was awake and ready to roll.

    Reflecting On My Time In Sierra Leone

    The TL;DR is: I am blessed more than I ever understood and I will make every effort to give thanks in all circumstances. Also, where God’s love exists there is always hope for something better. As I continue to process my experience in Sierra Leone Africa I can’t help but feel like I spent a week in another world. What I find simply amazing is that in a place so filled with hardship, and circumstances I can barely begin to comprehend, there are people that still manage to find joy, be generous, and show love and kindness to someone so very much unlike them. I chose this photo of children, not filled with smiles and laughter, but showing that theirs is a life of daily…
