Today’s been slow.  I got up fixed a cup of coffee and had a piece of cake…Not the best breakfast in the world.  I justified it by promising myself a run before work.  Now I’m second guessing the promise…

Did some Face-booking and checking out the world news as I sipped my cup of magic…same ole crap…just a different day.    Sure wish they could find out what happened to the missing plane, though…it’s so weird.

The birds are singing outside and the sun looks inviting but it’s so hard to make myself get out there.  I’m just  tired…and a bit Melancholy.  I wonder if going to bed within thirty minutes of when I get home at night (12:30am)  will help?  I think I should try it tonight….we’ll see…

Maggie and Danica are resting on their beds…they’ve eaten and have played awhile outside….so they’re happy puppies.  I hear Luna in her box scratching around and Morris is outside enjoying the sunshine.  What a wonderful brood… I love them so much!!

Well…going to read from my devotional…maybe I’ll come back with a few… insights…

….well I’m back…

…this is what jumped off the page to me as I read:

For the time being no discipline brings joy, but seems grievous and painful; but afterwards it yields a peaceable fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it….  Hebrews 12:11 

Well there goes my idea of skipping a run/walk for the day!!  I guess it’s one thing to know and talk about discipline but quite another practicing it.  After all what good is discipline if you don’t put it into action?  Absolutely nothing!

I am reminded that faith without WORKS is DEAD….and to be ye doers of the word and not hearers only…deceiving your own selves…

OUCH!!  Now that’s where the rubber meets the road…LITERALLY!

Excuse me while I go pound the pavement…

  My Running Mantra for the Day:   God’s grace is sufficient for me, for His strength is made perfect in weakness.
