A
reminder for today
It
was by faith that Abel brought a more acceptable offering to God than Cain did.
Abel's offering gave evidence that he was a righteous man, and God showed his
approval of his gifts. Although Abel is long dead, he still speaks to us by his
example of faith. (Hebrews 11:4)
Yesterday was a tough day. I have been troubled by
injuries and it seems as if they are just getting worse and worse. Pain is
something that I have continuously and as I travel on my journey. It has made
me question many of my habits and activities and how I go about my exercise
program. In the last few days I have made some huge adjustments to start and
compensate for the pain and I realised yesterday that I will have to make a few
more adjustments.
When it comes to training I am very stubborn and set in
my ways. I work hard and I give it all I have. So for me to bring the intensity
of my workouts down is quite a huge mind set change. For a moment I was just
lost in myself and I have forgotten the privileges and blessings that God so
gracefully laid upon me. I have become selfish in a sense and to allow God to
bring a time of recovery and healing into my life is something that I must do
in faith.
What is so amazing about these verses is the fact that
Abel still speaks to us by his example of faith. When we look at faith in our
own lives and how we live faithfully this is something we should strive for. To
lead a life of faith that will leave and example for those close to us that
they can use in their lives.
Live to live a life that resembles faith in all that you
do.
Have an awesome day dear friend of Jesus
Cheers
