Changes

Phew! So, my life has been slightly (incredibly) crazy for the past two months. Including a crazy work-week every week, an overwhelming amount of love and energy from my now fiance, obviously getting engaged, and starting a new morning running routine... I have been... out of sorts, I think.

I feel like, today, finally, I have caught up with life and will not be quite as thinned out... There are a lot of things happening for the rest of the month and up to March, really. It is really important that I keep up my life with God and studying the Bible. I feel like recently, the time I've been able to give to these things has diminished, and that has greatly affected my performance in life.

Things that changed since a few months ago:

I stopped doing Insanity to run more.
I stopped waking up at 5:30AM to read and study and started to run at 5:30AM.
I stopped studying the Bible for at least an hour because running at 5:30AM starts my day instead of study, and therefore I am tired at night to do it, and don't have time to do it in the morning before work.
I started planning a wedding.
I love my fiance, family, and friends more and more everyday, but my love for God has remained the same.
I want my love for God to grow more than anything everyday.
I stopped journaling/prayer journals.
I stopped blogging as efficiently.

Things that will change now:

I will start my mornings, again, now, with study.
I will follow study with exercise, Insanity style. Day 1 is today. Fit test.
I will run on Tuesdays/Thursdays. Consequently having to give up the morning runs.
I will establish more of a routine in order to most effectively regain the fullness of life, instead of hanging on by a thread.

These things, I've noticed, must be intentional on my part. Today, after reading 20 chapters of Joshua over the past month, have finally caught up with the commentary of it. I feel more at ease, and more able.

I've been multitasking like crazy today. Now I need to stop writing this and start Day 1 of Insanity.
I just needed to mark this day, this time. Etc.

Love. Love. Love. Love. Love life. Praise God.
