As you may know I have accepted the INSANITY challenge. Insanity is an extreme workout program that is 60 days of MAX Interval Training. The workouts are 30-45 minutes consisting of 3 minutes of non-stop cardio with a 30 second break, 6 days a week. After just one exercise the best way to describe each workout is certainly insane. Fitness guru Shaun T. is always encouraging you to take a quick break, dig deeper, and get back in it.
I have completed the first week and I am already seeing and feeling results. My clothes fit better. I have more energy. I feel a greater sense of accomplishment. The guy in the mirror looks a little different. It's definitely a good experience. Six days a week is a lot but you simply can't get the same results by only working out 1 or 2 days a week.
I was thinking today at Church, what would it be like if worked out my spiritual body the same way? What if I spiritually exercised for 30-45 minutes each day by reading, studying, praying, journaling, serving, loving, and worshiping, 6 days a week. For a lot of us, this type of spiritually activity certainly sounds insane.
Although I haven't started an official program, I have been reading, praying, worshiping, studying, journaling, and serving more than I ever have before. It has been more like 15-20 minutes a day and I am definitely seeing results. I have more joy. I have more patience and peace. I'm more thankful and gracious. I'm leading my family better. There has been unexplainable guidance in my life. I feel a greater sense of accomplishment. The guy in the mirror looks a little different. It's definitely been a good experience. Six days a week is a lot but you simply can't get the same results by only spiritually working out 1 or 2 days a week.
I invite you to accept the INSANITY CHRISTIANITY challenge. I know the name sounds lame but it rhymes and I just made it up. 60 days of reading and studying God's word, praying, listening, journaling, serving, loving, and worshiping, 6 days a week. Results guaranteed or your money back. :)
So c'mon y'all!! Let's GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! (INSANITY inside joke)
