Spring100 MILE LOG
…………………………………
“For all people will walk every one in the name of his god, and we will walk in the name of the Lord our God for ever and ever.”
Micah 4:5
…………………………………
A fellow Spring100er, Hannah G. from VA, brought Micah 4:5 to my attention this weekend and really encouraged my heart!? How perfect is it for the Spring100?! I love how Micah 4:5 reminds us that we follow not after the pattern of the world as they follow after their idols and false gods but we are set-apart and shining lights in a dark world as we walk in the name of the Lord God. In His name alone is there found salvation(Acts 4:12) and in His strength alone(Hab 3:19) will we make it to the finish line of our spiritual race triumphant(2 Corinthians 2:14)! Psalm 20:5 says “… in the name of our God we will set up our banners…”! Will you walk/run the Spring100 and run your spiritual race in the name of the Lord? Will you make His name known and conquer for His glory and by His strength? The Psalmist says in Psalm 34:1, ” I will bless the LORD at all times: His praise shall continually be in my mouth.” Let’s move forward this Spring100 giving the Lord ALL THE GLORY for every mile accomplished and let’s walk the Spring100 in the name of the Lord! “That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.” (1 Cor 1:31)! Y’all, enjoy week 5!! ???♀️?

My ankle is slowly healing up (praise God!) and running is becoming less painful. Thanks for your prayers!
My dream place to run would be… probably Colorado. I’m sorry, but it is just too gorgeous there.

@TrishaFaith – Did you attend SSI?!?!? Our family has attended for the past 10 years

I LOVE the pictures! So many interesting and beautiful places that people are walking! I would love to walk anyplace that’s country here in America, and not humid or excessively hot. Or wild Norway, soft England, or any foreign country, really. I wouldn’t be picky. 🙂 How wonderful it would be to explore a completely different location! But I’m very thankful to just be able to walk, so where God has me is fine with me. Thank you, Lord! 🙂
Rachel
Aren’t all the photos so fun and unique?! Your dream walking locations sound beautiful.☺️? Norway would be an amazing place to visit and walk in!!
Aw, amen to that! So thankful for the ability to enjoy a walk. Truly a blessing!!

Lydia Jael
Hmmmmmm… my first thought is Estes Park Colorado….Walking through the mountains on a crisp Fall morning!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ But if I were to pick somewhere I’ve never been I’d definitely pick the Swiss Alps ⛰ ?…. or the beaches of Hawaii!? ?
To many beautiful places here on God’s earth! It would be so hard to choose one!?? It looks like many Spring100ers have been blessed with beautiful scenery and wonderful company on the “everyday” walks! What tremendous blessing the Lord bestows upon us in our daily walks.❤️????

I think my favorite place for a Spring 100 walk would be the highlands of Scotland. There is such beautiful scenery there. I’ve enjoyed reading all the other participants dream places to walk. Israel would also be another place I would love to walk.
Lydia Jael
After seeing your slideshow I want to go with you, Hannah!!? It’s absolutely beautiful in Scotland!?❤️
I don’t know what I’d like more though…. taking a walk with you in Scotland or taking a walk with you while your babysitting!??. Your walking buddies in your photos look like such fun company! Keep it up Hannah… you are such an encouragement!?

It has been a lot of fun walking our 1.3 mile long gravel driveway on our farm here in VA as a family!
However, if I were to choose another place to walk my miles, I would probably choose either the farmland of the UK or the beaches of Prince Edward Island!
We’ve really been enjoying this challenge! Thank you for organizing it all!
Rachel
You have a LOOOONG drive way!!!!!! ? ?? SO glad you are enjoying family walks for this Spring100. What a blessing! And great “dream locations”. I head Prince Edward Island is lovely! ?

Rachel
Oooooh!!! Love the idea of walking with penpals across the world! That is fabulous. ??? Yes, amen! Let’s press forward in the strength of the Lord!!???
