221 Days to Go: Approaching the Distance

Getting really close to the full ironman swim distance. Swam 3850 yards today which is about 2.2 miles. That is encouraging! Just need to save enough energy to bike 112 miles and run a marathon after that :-)

Used the time to pray about making my heart sensitive to the grace of God. I translated in my Greek class yesterday 2 Tim 2:1, “You then, my child, be strengthened by the grace that is in Christ Jesus.” The verb “be strengthened” is a middle imperative which means strengthen yourself. As a pastor my main duty is to make sure this is true in my life.
