I'm possible!

Dear Campers,
     
Happy "week off from RBC" Eve!  I have been so excited to tell you that there are 71 less pounds of boot campers in Granbury!  It was so much fun to write that check this morning at church!  I am so proud of you.  You did the work and made great choices.  Thank you for making Revival Boot Camp so fantastic.
     
I have heard via the grapevine that a few of you are worried about having a week off from your workout.  This make me think three things:
  • You are all official members of the wonderfully weird fitness lovers club!   This is fantastic.  You are investing in your health and longevity. 
  • You need to understand the power of recovery.  Many times the thing our bodies need the most is rest and time to heal and come back even stronger.  Do not be scared that you will loose your mojo this week.  Continue to make good nutrition choices and set yourself up for success next week. 
  • Let's make a few opportunities to play together away from RBC!  There will be a group of campers meeting at the Y each morning at 5:00 am to walk and or run this week.  This could be just what you needed to change things up a bit.  It's called "active recovery" in the fitness training industry.  I will be joining the group on Tuesday and Thursday mornings.
 
In this week leading up to Easter, allow yourself time to reflect on your life's ups and downs or "Jerusalem's" as our pastor, Neil Norman, spoke about this morning in worship.  As Christians, this is our week to really work on the concept of "being ok with being uncomfortable."  For Jesus, being willing to be ok with being uncomfortable brought salvation to each of us.  This is the best example and most perfect gift we could ever be given!  Right now you may be in the midst of a "Jerusalem" in your own life and if you are, know that you are loved by God and loved by a group of believers that will stand strong with you until things get better.    

Enjoy this week.  Relish the rest.  Savor the sleep. Move in a new groove.  Anticipate His resurrection! 

Filled with gratitude and possibilities,
Amy
