On this couch to marathon journey, I am realizing so much of the battle is the first step out the door. There are so many reasons not to go that are loud in my mind. I find that noise sometimes makes it hard to tune into the reasons to go.

I share this with you today because this truth isn’t just about running, it applicable to life.

Often when we step into an unknown, something that is hard or something where we may fail, there are thousands of reasons not to do it.

Can you relate?

If so, I invite you to join me to…

pause. breathe. pray.™

Let’s pray to tune out the noise and instead tune into God. Let’s pray for Him to lead us and give us what we need to take that step of faith forward unknown. For when we do, we may experience an inner refinement that is transformational, as I am experiencing on this running journey.

With love and hope,
Shawn
