TRAINING FOR SG BI.
hmm. its been so long since i blogged. so here goes. :)
I need prayers for my Swim trial. its a open sea swim 1.5km. Jenny and I will be participating.
so do pray for both of us. :D
Do pray that we will be fine in the water.. able to adapt quickly to the 'not so clean' water,
pray that we will not suffer any leg/hand cramps. pray for good weather and good currents
(i am not sure what type of currents are better and easier to swim in.), pray for our muscle aches
to be gone, pray for loads of energy so that we will be able to complete the swim in less than 50min.
well, so far, Jenny and I have been practicing and our timings have improve gradually..
so i thank God for that :)
MOST OF ALL..please pray for me. i am kinda afraid to swim in the sea.. yes i have asked God to
remove the fear from me.. but i know i need to have the courage to face my fears and to step into the
sea to start swimming first before God can make the miracle happen.
i was just reading "Fearless" by Max Lucado on my way to work and this verse speaks to me.
'I am leaving you with a gift-peace of mind. And the peace I give the world cannot give. So dont be troubled or afraid." John 14:27 NLT
So i am gonna claim this verse and i will meditate it whilst i swim.. plus singing praise song while i swim.. (sing in my head, of course.)
I just wanna thank Jenny for training with me for the past 2 weeks. Thanks girl! <3 ya! :)
Thank u Sky for taking us to the sea and teaching us the necessary techniques needed for the swim leg.
I also want to thank all the prayer warriors in advance first.
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!
