Overcoming Fear

This morning I FINALLY did it. I got up at 4:35am to go swimming at 5:00am and out of faith that God would see me through. A) being in a bathing suit - never a strong suit for me, B) being intimidated by all these other swimmers who can actually "swim", C) trying to fit in and find a lane to swim in when people are "regulars" and probably like their particular lanes.

Well, it worked and Praise God I didn't drown and actually enjoyed this early morning swim. I didn't sleep much at all, in fact tossed and turned all night. But this morning as I got out of my card into the cold air and saw some of the sky and just listened to the sounds of the morning I thought, "hmmmm, yeah I could get used to this."

It was lovely.
