Progress on October Goals

So far this week, I've worked out 3 times.

Sunday, did a 20 minute legs and 10 minute abs video.
Tuesday, ran 3 miles with Noel at lunch - discovered a great way to spend a long lunch break.
Wednesday, did arms and Barre3.

I am a goal-setter, though not always a goal-follow-througher. I like structure, but I like freedom.

Last night at house church, we covered 1 Corinthian 6: 12-20. Everything is permissible, but not everything is beneficial. Everything is permissible, but I will not be mastered by anything.

I am always living in a state of being mastered by lesser freedoms. I want to sleep, so I miss my time with God. I want to feel full, so I miss practicing self-control. I want my way, so I miss humility.

Having goals can set me up for freedom, but the goals can become the master as well. I am praying through and focusing on the freedom found in Christ, lived out through following his Word. Not, setting goals for myself to feel better about myself so I can present a prettier picture of myself to the world. 

It's all about Him. 

Anyway, got sidetracked. So far, so good on October goals.
