The running Pi

When you just need to run. Running leads to great feelings. It also lets out some not so great feelings.

Our bodies align with our heart(soul) in interesting ways. What I mean to say is, when I personally cannot put into words what my heart wants to say, I am drawn to just run or some other sort of activity. The freedom of being free to run helps the heart release the tension of "speechless" syndrome.

So where do I run? I know it is to the end of the block or until I get tired, but as a Christian: "where do I run?" I read: "a mark of a mature christian is when in time of struggle you run toward God and not from Him". Many times my struggles have resulted in me running to drugs, alcohol, dip, working out, girls, etc. Now I see how eternal these things are, haha. Wow, not one of things have helped me grow, not to mention all the trouble most of those things have gotten me in.

Now I know to run to God. But, how does God come in the moment of struggle as it is happening. ex. I am drunk and my girlfriend wants to have sex. I know drinking is wrong but here I am drunk. Now, my girlfriend is pressuring me to have sex. How can I run to God. Tough situation.

I believe God wants the best for Himself. The best for Himself is going to be the best for ourselves. The thing you must realize is the best for God is not on the same level as what is best for us. This is where we trust God is good. The answer as to what to do is: "what will please God". We can't think of ourselves as the who should be put first. God is who we should want to put first. John the Baptist said: he must become greater, I must become less. John 3:30

tough pi to swallow and run with.

we weren't made to run alone; join with each other. It will be beautifully messy.

Chew on that peace
