From Couch to Heaven

Last fall I started the "Couch to 5K" program. It's to help you become a runner.
You can stop laughing now. I know who I am. I'm a champagne bath, anti-sweat, how-is-my-hair, tennis shoes are ugly kind of girl.

So, I asked some friends who are very self disciplined to hold me accountable... not just in the work-out area of my life, but also in my journaling, praying and guarding my heart areas. I love these sisters who receive my "help!" phone calls and emails with purposed love. They call to encourage. They pray. They congratulate me. They ask me hard questions. They make sure I email my self-discipline report! They also usually end up calling me one after another.

They are so integral to my life. The funny thing is - they don't know each other. Now that I am thinking about it, so many of the people I really love don't know each other.

I really can't figure out if we'll know who's who in heaven - or if it will even matter... but I guess a small part of the fun will be introducing everyone to everyone else.

That is so true about having good friends not knowing one another. I seem to get into that lots in friendships.

Great job with the couch to 5k April. I love the name. Pray for me I'm running a 1/2 marathon on May 9th. My first one!!
