Truth Vs. Lie

So a few girls and I have started this new Bible study called The Truth Project. Pretty much it is completely rocking my world! The basis of the whole study is around why do you believe the things that you believe? Why is the Bible truth? Is the Bible truth? Etc. It’s pretty awesome stuff! I’ve really become enveloped in this whole learning more about Truth vs. Lies. I believe that without knowing it, the world has begun to overcome my worldviews. How disturbing is that? That Satan, coming in all silent like that…wow. And it is not just me that has started believing these ridiculous lies. There is a battle out there! I think it is so easy to allow the black and white morales of life to fade to gray. Our generation has become such a “feelers” generation. When did that happen?? We don’t want to offend people in telling them that they are wrong, or worse, we don’t realize that there is a wrong and a right! There is always a truth and a lie! You can’t be in the middle! I’ll get from behind the pulpit now…that’s basically been what we’ve uncovered so far through this study. I have known about all this already but for some reason it is really starting to resonate with me. I am loving it! I'm sure there will be more to come on this topic as I embark deeper...

In other news, training for my two 10ks is going well. I still really hate running with a passion, in fact while I am running I am saying that to myself haha. But I love the feeling you get afterwards. You are totally tired and totally sweaty, but you feel refreshed. I am stoked about the Richmond 10k because I found out this is one of the largest races in the nation! There is something like 30,000 people already signed up. Talk about chaos! But there are several of us doing it together so it will be good motivation!

I am also pumped about this week because my friend Lindsay and I are heading down to Myrtle Beach on Thursday after work for our own “Valentine’s getaway”. I did this last year with Mar and it was a total blast! I mean sure, we are basically surrounded by couples the whole weekend, but it’s totally fun! We dress up one night and go out on the town then pretty much stay in our PJs and veg the rest of the time by the beach. It’s glorious! I have come to love my little travel vacas lately.

Just remember this when you are running . . .

"We are all Kenyan inside."

. . . or at least this is what some girl's sign said which was being held up at the end of the mini marathon that Katie and I ran. It got us though the last 100 yards.
