“There is not a flower that opens, not a seed that falls into the ground, and not an ear of wheat that nods on the end of its stalk in the wind that does not preach and proclaim the greatness and the mercy of God to the whole world.” – Thomas Merton

“My personal life may be crowded with small petty incidents, altogether unnoticeable and mean; but if I obey Jesus Christ in the haphazard circumstances, they become pinholes through which I see the face of God, and when I stand face to face with God I will discover that through my obedience thousands were blessed. ” – Oswald Chambers

Running log

By: Madeleine Guenette 

My goal is to run a marathon before I turn thirty, so I'm preparing for a marathon on August 4th. I logged 19.5 miles over the last two weeks, and in the process I think I knocked off the 10 lbs I gained over Christmas. Today's was the longest run yet: 4 miles, which I did in 36 minutes (or so, it was about the time it took to get through Rich Mullins' Winds of Heaven, Stuff of Earth CD). It was a comfortable run, so I'm pretty happy with my progress.

(I'm on week 4 of Hal Higdon's Supreme Novice program.)
