did you know that God blesses you with MORE time each time you spend time with Him in prayer?! so basically...those days you don't think you have enough time to pray, are actually the perfect times to pray! because God will allow you to get everything you needed done + more. just a fun fact for the day. :)
i learned that today. i think i've heard it before...but i can always use a reminder. :)
it is BEAUTIFUL out. so beautiful that i cannot stand to be inside doing homework!! :( my afternoon class was cancelled, and i want to take full advantage...go on a walk, go for ice cream, spend time with friends, sit outside & read. anything but my homework. :( so as you can see, i'm blogging about it instead ;) productive, yes?
so i'm going through my rec center pamphlet that lists all the classes i can take, and i've narrowed it down to these:
Cardio Kick: a high intensity workout feautirng kickboxing and plyometrics set to heart pounding music
Cardio Step: a high energy workout incorporating creative combinations and patterns on a step platform
Dancer's Definiton: this class blends Pilates, Yoga and fitness into one energizing workout meant to sculpt, lengthen, and strengthen every muscle in the body
Zumba: (yes!!!) you already have read about my obsession with zumba. so i'll spare you.
i'm really excited. i just hope i actually go! tonight my friends are going to a cycling class.... yikes! i hear those are REALLY intense. idk if that's quite what i'm looking for just yet... :]
does anyone know of a good book that i can use for discipleship? (discipleship is a program through FOCUS ((fellowship of Catholic University Students)) it is basically a christ-centered friendship...kind of like a mentorship program, i guess would be a somewhat different way to describe it. it's like a Bible study built for two! presssh. you will hear me referencing this a lot! because i have two girls that i disciple, and am being discipled as well) anyway. i want to find a good book that we could read for that. any ideas? I think there was a good St. Teresa Avila book, but i'm not sure...hmm.
Anyway....... i should probably get to that homework.
Have a wonderful day!

Thanks for the sweet comment(s)!! Hehe, I didn't even notice you repeated yourself. And I am SO glad we are blog friends too! It's so great to be able to encourage each other in our faiths :)
ReplyDeleteThe reminder to pray when you're busiest is just what I needed to hear right now... I feel like I'm going in a million directions today and it's sometimes hard to remember to pray in the midst of it all. The second I place my worries in God's hands though, I feel like the burden is a little lighter! Amazing :)
It's awesome that you're sharing your faith with the girls you disciple! I'm going to look into FOCUS... I've heard of it before but not really in depth. I don't have a book to suggest but I'm going to keep watching this post and see if anyone has suggestions- that would be so helpful!!
Have a beautiful day :)
Aw, no we don't have FOCUS missionaries :( I so wish we did... I visited the site and it sounds like the coolest thing ever.
ReplyDeleteI would LOVE to go to the conference though!! Do you have to be part of one of the FOCUS campuses to go, or can anyone attend? Because my Newman Center is looking for a retreat/trip to do and this would be the greatest experience. (Heck, I'd go on my own even if they didn't!) I always wanted to go to NCYC with youth group in high school and never did, so this would be a like dream come true. I'm jumping out of my skin with excitement right now, I want to go so so so bad :)
Oh, and that is awesome you opened up to Jeremiah 29! Isn't that such a good section?
Awesome. I will definitely bring it up to the group on Sunday!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the encouraging reminder to pray. I could always us them. :)
