I feel so much better when I work out. I've suffered from headaches all of my life- several different kinds. I've discovered the causes of a couple. But, I have also realized that exercising helps avoid and relieve them. But, somehow, once I get out of the habit, it's hard to get back into it- even though I know it's best for me.
I had been out of the gym for quite awhile.
This Christmas, I was struggling with what to get someone. She's the daughter I never had and she and her dad were spending Christmas with us. Then, it came to me. I had been concerned with her frequent knee issues and complaints when doing much walking. So, to give her more confidence and hopefully help her issues, I decided to giver her a membership for Christmas.
Knowing nothing about working out, it was obvious it was something I had to show her. So, not only was it a gift of health, but a gift of time. Those are the best kinds of gifts as far as I'm concerned.
This is week two. And, I am quickly realizing that this was a gift to me as much as it was a gift to her. 2 weeks in and we're still going strong. The more we go, the more fun it is. And, since I know she is watching me and looking to me for guidance, I know I can't quit this time. And, I think she is thinking the same thing. It's awesome to have people in your life who make you want to be a better person. She is one of those people.
So, where was God today? He was there when we were working out. And, He knew this was a Christmas gift we both needed.
Blessings,
Jennifer
