Faith & Fitness

I have started my day well

Sept 1

What a great morning! I got up early, spent time with God, and went to church for Revelation Wellness. It’s a group of women who get together once a week to exercise and worship. It is a combination of faith and fitness. I have wanted to join, but last year I didn’t have the opportunity while I was homeschooling my grandchildren. I hadn’t done an exercise class in a really long time. I stay really active, I’m not much for sitting around. Up and down my stairs all day helps to keep me in shape, so I wasn’t sure if I would make it all the way through, but I did! The music was worship, the exercise was worship and our prayer was worship. I smiled all the way through. I know it’s crazy. Who smiles as they are working out? I couldn’t help it. One, I was finally able to join a few friends in this class. Two, I felt the spirit of God the whole time. And three, I was actually keeping up.

Lastly, I thought I would have to choose between this class and a bible study, but this morning when I looked at the times for the class, I was pleasantly surprised that the bible study was right after Revelation Wellness, just upstairs. I can do both on the same day. No matter what the day has in store for me, I have started my day well. I have invited the indwelling of the Holy Spirit and worshiped with both my mind and body. Jesus is with me.
