“Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him that loved us.”
Romans 8:37
Well, CONGRATULATIONS!!๐๐ผ๐ We are entering week 12 of the 2021 Spring100 and just about 20 short days away from the LAST DAY to grab your miles for this challenge!! We have some fabulous and fun 100mileMonday posts coming your way in the next 2 weeks, so don’t miss them. As mentioned above, this 2021 Spring Challenge ends at 11:59pm(cst), June 20th so you still have plenty of time to get those miles. Behind? Grab a walking buddy, find a fun place to walk, and tackle missing miles. YOU CAN DO IT! ๐๐ป The verse that encouraged my heart this week is Romans 8:37, “IN ALL THINGS we are more than conquerors through HIM that loved us.” How is that for a promise!! Pair that with Philippians 4:13 where it says, “I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.” and you have the perfect motivation to get out and get those miles you need to cross the 100-mile finish line!! So many Spring100ers are already across the finish line and cheering you on!! YOU CAN DO IT. I am praying for each and every one of you this week! May you be both spiritually & physically strengthen, encouraged, and renewed.๐๐ผ The finish line is in sight, let’s fix our eyes on the prize and run with endurance!! Cheering you on. ๐๐ผ๐๐ผโโ๏ธ๐ฏ

Pineapple and watermelon are both good! I can’t pick a favorite! Congrats to those who made their 100 miles!
Rachel @Spring100
I agree, it’s hard to choose between the two! ๐๐
Aunt Barbara Mazzacco
WATERMELON ๐ but pineapple ๐ is a very close second. Having so much fun getting my miles in and I am memorizing Scripture verses while I walk.
Rachel @Spring100
I am so so so happy to hear you’re having fun!! What a HUGE blessing.๐๐๐ป
Hannah and Lauren
Absolutely WATERMELON all the way! ๐ It is my favorite fruit of all time! ๐
-Lauren
Rachel @Spring100
You really can’t beat a good, ripe, cold watermelon!!!๐๐
Hannah Stiff
Pineapple every time!๐. So sweet and juicy…
Rachel @Spring100
I hope you enjoy lots this summer! ๐๐
Abigail Stiff
Watermelon is my choice!๐I love it especially when its from our garden! The seeds are actually good for your nails.๐ค๐ผ Great question for this week Rachel!
Hope everyone is having fun as the weather starts to get warmer. I’ve been doing a lot of walking/running with our puppies which is always lots of fun.๐พ๐ถIt was fun
seeing you guys enjoying God’s creation! See you next week!
Abigail
Rachel @Spring100
Homegrown watermelon is THE BEST!!!!!!!๐๐
Thank you for your encouragement. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK, Abigail!๐๐๐ผโโ๏ธ
John Silvey
Watermelon!
Rachel @Spring100
๐๐๐ป๐๐ผ Delicious choice!
MJL
I’m going to say watermelon! And my favorite verse of the week comes from Hebrews 11 where it speaks of the faith of Moses:
“By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing HIM who is invisible.” Hebrews 11:27
Rachel @Spring100
Love Hebrews 11!!๐๐ป๐ฏ
Caroline Flournoy
Amen!!๐ What a beautiful and encouraging verse!!๐๐๐ Thank you for sharing that, it really encouraged me!๐ค๐ผ๐
In all things we are more than conquerors through Him that loved us. Romans 8:37
Watermelon!!!!! ๐๐๐ Very cold and ripe watermelon on a hot day is SOO nice!!!๐๐๐ค ๐๐๐๐๐ Which would you choose?!?
Lovely pictures everyone!!๐ Great job to those who completed their miles!!๐๐and to those who haven’t yet, you got this!!!๐๐ค ๐๐
I have a goal to get to 250 and I still have approx. 80 miles left but I’m really trying to do it!!๐ค we’ll see if I can make it!!๐ค ๐๐๐ Keep pressing forward to the finish line!!๐๐๐ We’re all in this together!!๐๐๐
The Lord is my strength and my shield; My heart trusted in Him, and I am helped;
Therefore my heart greatly rejoices, And with my song I will praise Him. Psalm 28:7
Rachel @Spring100
I would choose a cold ripened to perfection watermelon too!! ๐๐ I love pineapple but have to decide I am just going to eat pineapple as it makes my taste buds go numb after eating it. ๐ Crazy and true!
๐You have set a HUGE GOAL!! Praying you make it in the strength of the Lord.๐๐ป๐๐ผ Love that verse from Psalm 28!! Thank you for your encouragement, Caroline!!๐
Caroline Flournoy
That’s funny!!๐ Pineapple does that to my taste buds too!๐๐ฎ๐๐
I like to challenge myself to big goals and make myself do them!!๐ค ๐๐๐
Rachel M.
PINEAPPLE! ๐๐คค๐ It’s sooooo good!
Keep up the great walking everyone! If you are behind, please, please, please don’t stop. Don’t give up. You can do this. Walk 2 miles each day instead of 1. Go on two walks each day instead of one, because for some reason it seems to take less time that way. Run! you can go farther in less time… ๐๐คฃ Find someone to walk with you and TALK while you walk! It makes the miles go faster! ๐ If you don’t have anyone to walk with you, listen to music or something. Don’t give up. Keep going, one step at a time. ๐ธ๐น๐ผ๐๐ผโโ๏ธ๐ฏ
Rachel @Spring100
RACHEL!!!๐๐ป Your encouragement is SOOOOO motivating!!!!!!!!!!!!! ๐๐ผ THANK YOU for being such a HUGE blessing!!!!!! “Donโt give up. Keep going, one step at a time.” YES!!!!!!!!! ๐๐ปโโ๏ธ๐๐ป
Trinity Collier
I did some math and I need to do 3.9 miles a day to make it to the finish line!!!
Sadly Spring100 is right during plant season and my Dad just happens to run a station for Bonnie plants, and I’m a route helper, office assistant, and anything else they need me to do person๐คช I think if I start getting up at 5am and running I can complete the 3.9 each morning.
Prayers appreciated! Press on friends!
Rachel @Spring100
Trinity!!!! Iโm praying for you!!! ๐โฅ๏ธ๐๐ป Press forward in the strength of the Lord. Cheering you on!!!!!
Abigail B
I like watermelon better than pineapple, but I like pineapple too. Finally got my 100 miles done.
Rachel @Spring100
Way to go Abigail!!!!!! Congratulations!!!๐ฏ๐๐ผ
Katrina A
I like both fruit but I think I would pick watermelon first!
Hagey Family
Our family enjoys eating both of these wonderful fruits, but eating watermelon chunks in a bowl with a bit of feta cheese sprinkled on top is such an awesome salad! ๐
God’s Word is the best refreshment that we have – we are truly thankful that we can cling to the precious truths written in His Word! May He bless each one of you! ~ Pam Hagey
Rachel @Spring100
Amen!!!!!! Thank you, Mrs Hagey!!
Sarah Silvey
Definitely watermelon!! I really like pineapple too, but if I eat to much of it, it makes my mouth feel really funny. ๐ There is nothing like a juciy, sweet, ripe watermelon on a hot summer day!
This week Hebrews 3:12-14 stood out to me- “Beware, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief in departing from the living God; but exhort one another daily, while it is called “Today,” lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. For we have beocme partakers of Christ if we hold the beiginning of our confidence steadfast to the end” What a call to be diligent to exhort fellow beliveres daily!
Thanks, Rachel, for the verses you shared. They were very encouraging! Hope everyone has a wonderful week 12 of Spring100! I can’t believe that the finish line is in sight…it seems like we just got started! ๐
Julia V. Hilts
We choose watermelon ๐! Sadly my older daughter and I are allergic to pineapple! ๐ฅ
We still have some miles to go, and are hoping the weather holds out, or we may just end up walking in the rain! At least it’s warm summer rain. ๐
