     I wrote a couple days ago about the struggles in my life and how they were weighing me down.  Well, this is an update on that.

     I have been getting much better since last week.  When I say in the headline “the climb”, I mean the climb.  It has not been easy, but I have been making progress.  I have had to force myself to read the Bible once again, but now that I am back in the groove, it is easy to turn the TV off and read.  When I go for my evening runs, I find myself talking to God more.  It just seemed that the busier that I got with church, the less I depended on God and took care of things myself, or tried to. [more....]

     As some of you know, I have recently become a runner. It is really an addictive thing once you do it.  Well, tonight, I went to Charleston, WV to run in a 5k. On the way, I was listening to this band called Fireflight.  There was this song “stand up”, it was what I am feeling right now.  The song talked about being broken with the thinks of this world and that we need to stand up because everything is going to be OK.  I was so pumped after listening to the song, I went out and ran a personal best of 26:13.  I am so blessed to have God on my side whenever I think that things are not going my way.  He always has my back!!!!!

     So, continue to keep me in prayer that things will continue to in the right direction, and I know they will!!!
