Here is the upper body workout I did this morning…
I repeated this 2 times. It is an effective but short workout that packs a punch. The pike pushups get me every time.
After I finished I walked a 1/2 mile around my backyard before the kids woke up. I am trying to move as much as possible during the day. I have worn a path in our grass from all the walking.
When I was walking I listened to my bible readings for the day. I am currently using The Gospel Coalitions Read The Bible in a year plan. The sun was starting to get higher in the sky as Psalm 24 was being read.
The earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof,
the world and those who dwell therein,
for he has founded it upon the seas
and established it upon the rivers.Who shall ascend the hill of the Lord?
Psalm 24
And who shall stand in his holy place?
He who has clean hands and a pure heart,
who does not lift up his soul to what is false
and does not swear deceitfully.
He will receive blessing from the Lord
and righteousness from the God of his salvation.
Such is the generation of those who seek him,
who seek the face of the God of Jacob
I felt so much peace after listening to this. I love how each year when I read the bible a passage will stick out to me like it never has before. Seeking God is often a daily struggle for me. I wish that weren’t the case but that is the truth. It is super easy for me to find things to fill my time with but I have the learned that the best way for me to spend my time to is to read God’s word. I may not understand everything I read but I do have more peace because I filled myself up with encouragement and grounded myself in a wisdom that comes from the maker of heaven and earth.
This workout is part of the Free 1 Month Plan that I put together.
