Pushing Myself Beyond...

Lately I'm finding that I require more.  More depth in my walk with God, more discipline in my eating  (controlling cravings, negating previous bad food habits), more intensity in my workout regime. My life itself has been giving me more, though not the more I wanted or expected, but significant changes there for my own spiritual and character growth.

I am finding during my trials and tribulations that I am already so much More.  Stronger than I ever thought I could be, more forgiving than I knew I had in me, more determined to be a living example for God here on this earth, better able to understand that though we are all human, we are all also spirit, all connected ( wether we choose to be or not LOL!).

Like us all in these times we live in, the difficulties are more prominent, but, so is the ability to have gratitude in all there is and all I am.  Life is pushing me beyond, way beyond where I thought I could reach and climb.  I am thankful for these trials, difficulties, and even the confusion.  The silver lining that begins to show through is well worth it.  It is because of God that I am where I am and I give all the glory to Him. His mercy, teaches me mercy, His grace allows me to have grace, His unconditional forgiveness makes it possible for me to do the same.

I know I will continue to be pushed beyond as long as I have breath, and life.  I am comforted that through all of this I have Him.

I must give a shout out to creator of P90X workouts Tony Horton who is definitely giving me way more physically than I ever thought I could do! :D
