Devotion:
Streams in the Desert
When you pass through the waters... they will not sweep over you. (Is 43:2)
God does not open paths for us before we come to them, or provide help before help is needed. He does not remove obstacles out of our way before we reach them. Yet when we are at our point of need, God's hand is outstretched.
Many people forget this truth and continually worry about difficulties they envision in the future. They expect God to open and clear many miles of road before them, but He promises to do it step by step, only as their need arises. You must be in the floodwaters before you can claim God's promise. Many people dread death and are distressed that they do not have dying grace. Of course, they will never have the grace for death when they are in good health. Why should they have it while in the midst of life's duties, with death still far away? Living grace is what is needed for life's work and calling, and then dying grace when it is time to die.
Workout:
WOD: Active Recovery
En-Durability:
- 4.2 mile ruck march using 45lb pack (85 min)
- Active Stretch
Notes:
- Legs were pretty sore today so pace was slow and methodical. Hiked through a thin layer of snow on trails the entire time. Used the time to clear my head and get away from the stresses of every day life.
- Conditions: 15 degrees and cloudy. Cold and refreshing.
