Honor, Integrity, and Balance

There is a lot of disconnection in our World- we disconnect from God, from each other, and ourselves! In Godersize it is essential to find yourself doing what you love and need! You need to be imperative and indicative- to let your acts become who you are, and who you are becomes your acts! Balance is found by faith alone! If you get to comfortable in life with one side than the other; you find your self broken!! In Martial arts you practice the imperative of 'You are your acts'! In running and sports you practice your acts become who you are! If Father Abraham had said he was too comfortable in his own place to move away as instantly as God requested- none of us would be here! We need to live such Spiritual lives of change and adaption that we know who we are in Christ and that is all we need to know and do! But we need to seek Him all the time! So, here we are talking about martial arts philosophy in the mist of Balance and our faith! Be who your are, seek who you are in Faith in Christ alone!- all the moves and techniques are Good, but be balanced with Integrity and Honor of who God made you!

Balancing the weights of Sport and Activities!!

Exercising can be the funnest thing you do all day!! So why limit your fun! There is so much you can do to be active in life; sports, games, and arts! You can do yoga and Tia chi, or play football and run! The important thing to remember is not to limit yourself to one or two things at a time= But, to  balance them with what your goal and body needs!! I like to do a mix of Pilate's and yoga to warm up, and then progress in either my dance or running goals! If I eat a lot of carbs= I run! If I skip a few days= I dance hard and long!! I do it all in the Joy of the Lord! As in this verse Isaiah 61:3= 
 And provide for those who grieve in Zion—
to bestow on them a crown of beauty
   instead of ashes,
the oil of joy
   instead of mourning,
and a garment of praise
   instead of a spirit of despair.
They will be called oaks of righteousness,
   a planting of the LORD
   for the display of his splendor.

Be sensible and have a good time getting in shape! Remember to join others to really be able to 'endure' when it gets ruff! Try playing a sport with others or invite a friend to run or dance with you- Remember being Active is a lifestyle and a choice- One you should make!!

Run For God!

Running is a very misunderstood sport and activity!! There are extreme views and ignorant views, but my view is spiritual and based on my Faith! So, we do need to be educated on the details of burnout, shoes, and marathons and all! But when it comes to doing running we need Faith! God taught me to meet my goal with my body! So, I don't over do it and I still feel I have done my best! I was very overweight until recently, and now I can do this! I start out with intervals and build up slowly so my body heals and grows healthier altogether! I must rest in between as an act of Submissive Wisdom!! I love the parallels of this endurance sport to the Endurance of our Faith and walk!! We need to push our body out of it's unhealthy discomfort, and we need to die to our sinful nature too!! When you run you have time to pray and grow too! Clear you mind and cleanse your Body! It's time to run! So check out the Run For God devotional and start remaking your new Healthy Life with Christ in the middle and on top!      http://www.runforgod.com/
