new shoes

SO I love my new shoes!  Brooks PureCanence running shoes.  I have super flat feet and decided to stop using my orthotics and find a shoe that was lightweight and good support.  My feet have been happy during and after runs, def recommend. 


Reminded:

Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.  Hebrews 12:1-2

per-sev-ere:  to continue steadfastly
stead-fast: firm in belief, determination, or adherence : loyal

You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfastbecause they trust in you.  Isaiah 26:3
Whoever walks in integrity walks securely, but whoever takes crooked paths will be found out proverbs10:9. His walk may be slow but it is sure. Filled with steady perseverance. It searches for peace rather than prosperity. This is contrary in almost every way our world works today. One day at a time... PERSEVERE
