How to Do-Good

Quick How-To Guide: Start the day with a little silence, scripture (via Forward Day by Day, if you choose) and prayer. Then open your eyes and make it a practice to be hyper-aware of who and what's going on around you. Deploy that deed with confidence when God gives you his signature gentle nudge. This may feel awkward and unnatural. #NoWorries #GoWithIt #DeedWellDone #BlessingsEnsueJustWait

Day 316

Scripture: Ps 41, 52, 44; Genesis 14:1-24; Hebrews 8:1-13; John 4:43-54


Scripture standout: Ps 41: "1 Blessed are those who have regard for the weak; 
   the LORD delivers them in times of trouble. 
2 The LORD protects and preserves them— 
   they are counted among the blessed in the land— "

His Deed/The Day: So, I was typing away this morning — and burned two pieces of toast so badly, that they caught on fire in the toaster oven. The house smells TERRIBLE. It smells like the smoking section of a raunchy bar. Yuck. It was nice to get out for awhile today. RB and I finished our last long run — 22 miles! For RB, at least. My foot started acting up at mile 16, so I had to walk some. But whatever...that big training deed is done, done DONE!


I was a little worried about seeking out a deed tonight at Walgreens, where I was buying arch supports and Aleve. Luckily, the guy behind the counter asked if I wanted to donate $1 to the American Cancer Society. Considering how my house smells, I thought it was a timely give. Done.
