Grace

Grace

It was a perfect day for running! Although I was working on about four hours of sleep and was mentally exhausted from worship this morning -- Amber gave me permission to take a rare afternoon run.

I hooked up with fellow Boston-qualifiers Kurt, Tracy, and Joanie and enjoyed the 40 plus degree weather. It felt good to be in shorts. We started out at Lake Zorinsky and then worked the hills on F Street between 180th Street and 204th Street. We returned to the lake and did another loop. We put in about 13 miles.

Grace is the surprise of good news. It is grace when a beautiful day comes out of no where. Grace is also a gift. It is something we can't earn or deserve. It is only something that we can accept and enjoy. This afternoon was grace.

I got in 70 miles this week.
