Reverse Direction

Whoa! Today was turned totally around, and it was cool. More on that in a minute. Here's the run down friends: ballistics warm up, 2 mile run, stairs jazzed up to 15 sets, surprised body with sprints, dash "burpies", and core to stretch. Also, got to chat with a cool dude about veggie juicing.

Now, here's for the reverse direction. Life happened today! Morning appointments, afternoon mentoring season, and planted the garden. I had planned on going to the track this afternoon but everything today started to take too long. As the time opened for me to head to run I found as many excuses as there are ants in my garden. In fact, I almost did not go at all.

The track kept calling and finally I surrendered. There came a point that the reverse of the day began to remind me of a great reverse of direction that we all called to in our life. This reversal calls us initially for our salvation. Then as life happens we find ourselves in need of more reversals. These make themselves available to us in times when we make the wrong choices in life. We have to humble our selves, stop making excuses and make the reversal back into a grace relationship with Jesus. I sure am glad this reversal keeps calling us.

Acts 17: 20 "Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to repent,"

Revelation 2:5 "Remember therefore from where you have fallen; repent and do the first works, or else I will come to you quickly and remove your lampstand from its place--unless you repent."



The difference between who you ARE and who you WANT TO BE is the work you put in.
