I had a friend of mine ask me the other day, "what is it about walking, jogging & running that I love"? That is a really hard question for me to answer. I do love walking and enjoying seeing God's beauty around me, but to be honest, I can't say that I have the same love for jogging & running. At this point I just have to make myself do it. There is a verse in the bible that says "The spirit is willing, but the body is weak (Mark 14:38)". Boy does that fit me to a tee, when it comes to eating & exercise. I desire to eat well & exercise, but is a daily battle with me. I make myself exercise 6 days a week, only taking off Sundays. There are days when I can think of all kinds of excuses (most acceptable) why I shouldn't exercise that day. I have to force myself to get up off my gluteus-maximus and get moving. Once I'm out walking, then I need to force myself to jog or run. I love that I am strong enough to not give into my laziness. It feels so good, when I win the battle with my body. One day I hope that it won't be a battle, and that I will not only love to exercise but desire to do it too.Recipe for today: "French Baked Potatoes" I love the crispy bottom to these potatoes.
