A Kruiser enKouragement
( October 20, 2006 )

This morning I came up with a good excuse for not walking and I thought I would share it with you in case you want to use it!  Excuse: A badger was in the way.  I was heading out our lane towards 300^th Street and about half way down, there he was throwing dirt.

It got me thinking. Wouldn’t it be fun to come up with a list of excuses for not walking (or doing whatever exercise you are doing). Maybe we could put them in a book and sell it for a fund raiser!

But there is a catch.  Since we know exercise is good for our hearts and we want to be encouraging to our fellow Kruisers, along with the excuse there needs to be an excuse buster! Here’s what I mean. Excuse: A badger was in the way. Excuse Buster: Walk around the cow field instead.

The suggested Bible reading for this month is I John and the next gathering of the Kruisers is November 15^th, 6:30 p.m. at the church.  As you are reading I John, look for ways you can show God you love him.

I John 1:7 says: But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin. The Living Bible reads: But if we are living in the light of God’s presence, just as Christ does, then we have wonderful fellowship and joy with each other, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from every sin.

Think of it, not only are we cleansed from every sin, we have wonderful fellowship and joy with each other! Take time to thank God for the fellowship and joy we with have with each other.  Ask God to show you how to walk in the light of his presence.
