Energy creates Energy

Day 2

My friend Angela encouraged me to start training for my first marathon last year. Her husband, Matt, encouraged her. Her husband's brother encouraged him. His name is Pat Perry. He has a website called http://www.energycreatesenergy.com/. He has posted this on his website: In training for life - father, husband, trail runner, CEO. Fitness: If you don't have the energy to exercise, that is exactly what you should do, because energy creates energy. Leadership: Great leaders are not the smartest or the best; they bring energy. They turn people on, bring out the best, inspire. Energy creates energy.

That is so true in life.
Encouragement creates encouragement
Love creates love
Joy creates joy
Forgiveness creates forgiveness
Energy creates energy

There is no start-stop in those things above. They are a cycle.

Can a person stop loving, yes! Can they stop having joy, yes. But not everyone at the same time loses joy. They pass that joy, encouragement, love, forgiveness, energy from one person to another. It is circular.

Yesterday was a great day. Why? I created energy. I started my day with bootcamp. I filled my day with productiveness at work. When it was slow, I did something else. I did not watch TV, play a game on the computer, or stare into space. I was busy. Some days that is hard to do when you work from home and the phones drive your productivity. But it was amazing that the harder I worked, the more busy I became. By 5pm, I had as much euphoria as I do when I finish bc or run. I ended the day with my husband and friends. We were not even passive with that. We made dinner together; we played games together; we laughed; we created joy.

So today's lesson: Not everything has a finish.

I know that about my life as a Christian- I believe in salvation and Heaven.

So in my quest to finish everything, this is a simple reminder that there are a few things that have no end.
