This time tomorrow it will all be over!!

Well, it's hard to believe, but this time tomorrow it will all be over!!! Today is very strange. The lull before the day! I'm very excited!

All the hard work has paid off. I finally got a bike this week! Yesterday and today have mostly been about keeping my head where it needs to be.

Rob happened to put in Facing the Giants last night...very cool movie to watch pre-triath!! It really helped remind me of what really matters. I know that no matter what happens tomorrow, the Lord has opened doors for all of this to happen and I will praise him the all the way to the end of the line!

It doesn't even make sense to my ears that I'm doing this, but God is the strength of my life and with Him all things are definitely possible! He is the Voice of Truth and the only one who could have done all of this!!

Revelations 3:8 says, "I know your deeds. Behold, I have put before you an open door which no one can shut, because you have a little power, and have kept my word, and have not denied my name."

I have struggled through this whole process to keep my eyes on the Lord...not on myself, and not on the hugeness of this task!

Seek first His kingdom and His righteousness and all the things will be added to you!

I can do all things through CHRIST who strengthens me!

Wow. How I miss his strength when I am fighting to do it all on my own...and failing! How great it is to know that HE longs for me to depend on Him who alone is able!

Thank you Lord for all of this.
Thank you for the strength.
Thank you for the endurance.
Thank you for helping me get up every morning, 6 days a week!
Thanks for the time with my 3 older kids while they trained with me!
Thanks for a supportive husband!
No matter what happens tomorrow, it has all been worth it!
I love you Lord,
You make me strong!
Your little girl,
Donna
