Psm: 27 v. 14 ; "Be of good courage and He will strengthen." 

Night has consumed the day. I got some work done inbetween the rain drops. However the day went, feel I could have done more.  I have been thinking of my friends in Texas. I miss riding around with the top down and the wide open sky.  The troops at Ft. Hood and more.  The FAITH we shared and the times spent together will always be part of my life. God Bless Texas. Jeff

Job: 31 v. 6 - "Let me be weighed in an even balance, that God may know my integrity."  The balance between physical strength and beauty, and the ever quest for spiritual enlightenment are always under attack from this world who sees beauty and strength as vanity.  This environment of self, keeps some from finding the real self. The goodness of training your body, heart and soul for the trials of this life and the Victory of the afterlife are essential and both are very real and require constant attention.  Training the body and the soul needs to be, and have mutual attention.  If you can find time to reach out to someone in need, you have exersized the gift of giving.  The integrity you seek is seen in the eyes of others.

Training in the rain can be a challenge,  When all we have had up here in Maine for the last two weeks is rain and poor weather it is easy to say, " I can’t go running today".  However there are things to see during the rain a sunny day does not give, splashing as you step, seeing your reflection in a puddle, sweat or rain drops.  Look up and forward and remember these words from Rom: 5 v. 20 " Give thanks always for all things."  Enjoy your day whatever it may bring, endure hardships and do not faulter.  Train in the rain.

Those things we ask of our bodies during intense workouts and those things we ask for while going about our daily living, peace, strength and honor, these are the things which make a person whole, and good.  Luke 11 v. 10 "For everyone that asketh recieveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened unto him." 

Be strong in all things granted unto you to do, build your body as a tesiment to the gift.

Yours truely, Jeff the Harbormaster

Spiritual health and physical fitness go hand in hand. being in tune with your creator will definatly help as you tune up your body.  Try meditating on thoughts of clean air and rolling fields, and incorporate a thoughtful Bible verse, such as Eph.5 v. 10  "Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord."  Then push out those max reps. you will feel and become stronger.  Jeff  the "Harbormaster"
