I learn so much

from running.  Running has not always been fun and I didn't always miss it if I didn't do it.  It took about nine months for me to finally enjoy running.  Now if I don't do it, I feel like I didn't brush my teeth or take a shower.  There are so many similarities when I compare my running and spiritual workouts with one another.  Right now, my spiritual workouts are going best in the way of memorizing scriptures, meditating on them and then praying these verses.  Without these spiritual workouts, I feel like I am really missing something.
