Motivation Monday

Change is good…and today I’m starting a new type of post. On Motivation Monday, I hope to pose a challenge that motivates both you and I to do the right thing that day (and hopefully days to come!)

Today’s Motivation Monday challenge is this: Move your body.  Take a walk, do an exercise video, get on the treadmill, go to the gym, take your kids on a walk, walk during your lunch hour, do whatever you need to do to move your body today.

God only gives us one body…let’s take care of it!

    I think I am up for that challenge! It was a pleasure hearing you speak last week at Parkview Christian Church. I have read, and re-read you 10 steps to De-Stress and am willing to try and fit each of these in my life. Thank you for being such a wonderful example.

    Jill, I’d love to hear how you fit exercise into your busy schedule – maybe you can offer pointers to those of us who can’t seem to find time.

    Thanks so much for this! God has really been working on me that I NEED to get back into shape and quit with the excuses. I was very blessed that a new tennis league was formed this summer and we loved it so much we’re playing into October. Now I just need to find a way to keep it up through those winter months.

    Love it! I actually got to the gym and my hubby did too this am! Been doing Weight Watchers for 4 months and down 17 pounds. Trying to treat my body like the temple of God that it is! 😀

    I love this idea, but I am resting today because I ran a 5K on Saturday 🙂 I am taking a few days off before getting back to training for a 10K!

    Jill, I love this Motivation Monday-so positive! I also have to say perfect timing-I am up and moving-had already planned it-but love your ideas. Keep it Simple and move-I have also learned it is JUST A DECISION I can CHOOSE to FOLLOW THROUGH with. Thank God for the people He uses in Ministry to reach out to His creation! Blessings-
