push at 25

     hey so it was Tuesday and i really wanted to push my self.. i wanted to see how far i could make it in an hour,  my goal was to try to do 25 miles in 2 hours..  when i realized that ironman biking is a 20-30mph sport and i am only doing 10mph... that rang a bell  a really loud bell you could say i really, really, really, really, have alot of work to do... so i tried pushing harder this time.. and thankfully i had made it to the McCoy cut off and was on my way back before the 1 hour marker went off.. whoooooooooo i can not begin to tell you how excited i was... at one point when i check my speed i was keeping up a 12mph pace.. when i finished the route i had finished with a 11.6mph pace.. i little disappointing, but really stoked at the same time because i made it back to the house before the second hour maker had went off on my alarm... man... that is totally cool...  it was amazing feeling to reach that kind of goal.. i think if i can hit those goals Thursday and Friday as well then next week i might actually try to hit 30 miles in 2 hours if i can..
               I have been taking time to pour over Isaiah 46 lately.. God is the God of all. He declares that over his people and the earth. i can help but think through that and pray through that on my rides... i pray and pray and pray God would come speak to me like he did the prophets of old, not that i am a prophet by any means, but i seek out his voice in the early mornings none the same.. i have really focused lately on Jesus Blood covering my sin, and that in My God's sight i am blameless because of that, and because of that i have been asking him, even saying to him in prayer, "lord my sins are covered, i am a Son, Jesus died so that i could be called that, please father as a Son come and speak to me, allow me to hear your voice give me Directions God as a son of your please Father speak to me."  i share this so you to know that i desires the things that you do. God still speaks through scripture to us, but i have a longing for him to give oral direction to my life, to help me be even more deeply in love with him then i could ever imagine, in turn praying that that too would help me to refrain from the sin that traipse through out my life that i too fight against as well. 
         keep going, don't quit, we can do this, through God's grace, His power, and our tenacity... push keep going, and reach the goal you have set, and set another goal.  don't give up and be consistent.
