“See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, Redeeming the time, because the days are evil. Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.”
Ephesians 5:15-17
As we enter week 4 of the Spring100 I always like to remind fellow Spring100ers to redeem your walks! ? It is very easy to let that mile pass without much thought, isn’t it?! We pass the mile sliding through our favorite social feed on our phone or thinking about something completely random. We are told in 1 Timothy 4:8, “For bodily exercise profiteth little: but GODLINESS is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.” Life that is now and that which is to come…. WOW! Here at the Spring100, I believe a mile is not just a mile but its time that can be redeemed! A mile used to meditate on scripture, pray, or encourage others is a mile well spent. For me, my morning mile walk is a great time to pray. It is usually the only time of day where I can be guaranteed quiet concentrated time! If I’m not taking that time to pray, I have the audio Bible downloaded on my phone that I will listen to or I will turn on my BBN radio app! Families have mentioned these walks are a great time for family fellowship, catching up after a busy day, or brushing up on their Scripture memorization together. How wonderful is that?!?? And even a mile just spent soaking up God’s creation and resting-resetting our minds to mentally prepare for the tasks that lay ahead is a mile well-walked?! So, a mile isn’t just a mile…. The time spent enjoying physical exercise can be so much more. Put your Smart Phone away??, look up, redeem the time, and make each mile count both here on earth and for all eternity! Make an intentional effort to incorporate God’s Word, encourage others, and soak up God’s glorious creation when walking your miles this Spring100. All right, are you ready to conquer this new week of walking/running???♀️?♂️ Enjoy walking week 4!??♀️
Week 3 QUESTION!! How do you spend the time during your Spring100 Walks?? Enjoying time catching up with family/friends? Scripture memorization? listening to audio? Enjoying the beautiful views of God’s creation? Just trying to focus on not tripping?? OR…? Comment below and let us know!↓

“I will go in the strength of the Lord GOD: I will make mention of Thy righteousness, even of Thine only.”
Psalm 71:16
Sydney Apperson
We have at least three steady walkers, but often we’ll have neighbors or other siblings tag along and we have a great time talking, catching up with each other, telling stories, and enjoying creation! I was so excited to find out that there are some beautiful walks around our house!
Rachel
So happy you’ve found some beautiful walks around your house. The Lord is faithful to provide! 🙂
Bethany Griggs
I enjoyed seeing the video clips and all the pictures sent in this week!!! Great job on covering the miles everybody!
Rachel
?????? Thank you, Bethany!!!!
Amanda
Enjoyed seeing all the fantastic pictures from week 3!!! I love using my walks as a prayer time, as well as listening to uplifting music and just enjoying the Lord’s beautiful and amazing creation! And here lately it has been focusing on trying to avoid the many mud puddles that line our driveway. ?
Rachel
?Stay dry, Amanda!!
Annie
Loved seeing all the photos & the video project from this week! 🙂 During my walks, I pray, listen to podcasts, walk with a sibling, or just enjoy the quietness of God’s creation. <3
Rachel
Keep up the great work, Annie!!
Rachel Lamb
It takes 6 laps around our property to do 1.1 miles, so I try to memorize one verse per lap, or review as necessary! I’m working my way through the Psalms. Sometimes I also just read a book or sing. 😀 This week I had my nose buried in a book as I walked past the peach blossoms, but even still, I all of a sudden smelled honey! It’s neat how God designed flowers so they don’t prick or tickle your nose when you smell them. 😀
Annie
I love that idea! I actually tried it last night after seeing your comment. Thanks for the inspiration 🙂
Rachel
RACHEL!!!!!! This is such a fabulous way to walk those laps. GREAT JOB!!!!!!
Leona
Thank you for your encouragement to use walking time wisely! We’ve been going out as a family, so our walks are usually spent talking with each other. 🙂 It’s a nice thing to do as a family!
Rachel
Love hearing y’all spend the time together!!! ???
Emma H.
If I’m walking by myself, I like to listen to music, sermons, or history lectures. My siblings and I all love history, so when we’re together we sometimes give each other history quizzes! Other times, we just talk with each other or text with our married siblings or friends.(I wouldn’t recommend texting and walking, though! I normally end up crashing into someone!) 😀
Rachel
??I have had my fare share of crashes when trying to text and walk! Good tip. ?
Jen Danner
We enjoy walking with our puppies!
Rachel
Great way to multi task!! ???
Rosie Alexander
When I’m walking down our street everyday, I like to focus and meditate on a portion of Scripture from that morning. And my last lap down our street, I stop at a stone bench by the end of our street and walk down to the large pond to take in that day’s quietness and beauty. It is one of my favorite places in the world, so getting to finish up my walk there is always a treat.
Rachel
Sounds absolutely beautiful, Rosie!! ???
Aunt Barbara
Thank you all for doing this again this year. Wish it was warm enough in Massachusetts to wear my Spring 100 shirts from the past two years. “In everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you” 1 Thessalonians 5:18 ~ Love to all of you ?
Shiloh Photography
So , so thankful to have you along again this year Barbara!☺️??
Mary Mieczkowski
Most of my walks have been either with siblings or virtual ones with friends! I have so been enjoying the warmer weather here in MI for week 3 🙂
Shiloh Photography
Yay Mary! So glad you enjoyed week 3!Yes!
warmer weather at last!??
Tirzah Faith
A huge thank you to everyone for their prayers for my injury last week! I went from just getting off of crutches to walking over 13 miles in Week 3! Prayer is powerful and my foot feels completely back to normal. I’m still waiting to run, just to play it safe, but I’m so thankful to our Jehovah Rapha!
Lydia Jael
So glad to hear this! Praise the Lord!????
Shiloh Photography
So glad to hear that Tirzah! Praise the Lord!??
Ruth
Wow, wonderful post Rachel!? Loved the video!!!!❤️❤️❤️ I enjoy spending time with my siblings on my walks and also taking in the beautiful scenes around me! ??????? I also hope to do more Bible listening during my walks in the weeks to come! Can’t wait to plunge into week 4! Keep up the great work everyone!!!
Colossians 1:10,11
“ that you may walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing Him, being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God; strengthened with all might, according to His glorious power, for all patience and longsuffering with joy
Abigail Warkentin
Great job everyone!!?? If I’m walking by myself, I usually listen to audio Bible, or a podcast, or music! Sometimes I walk with my siblings, and then we just visit and have a fun time!?
Shiloh Photography
Way to go Abigail! Listening to Bible audio during walks is one of the best ways to redeem the time! I love all the different ways people are using their walking time!??♀️?????
Lydia D.
I normally spend my walks chatting and catching up with my sisters 😀 Week 3 was amazing, and the weather was super nice!!
Loved seeing all the pictures!! 😀
Rachel
Yay! I am so happy you had beautiful weather for week 3!!!!!! ???
Julia M
This week was great! I was able to spend a lot of time talking with my sibs, running, and listening to some uplifting music ? Thanks for the great video, Grace 🙂 And the pictures were super fun, everyone ?
Rachel
Keep up the FABULOUS WORK, Julia!! ?
Rachel Mitton
During the week when I walk by myself, I meditate on Bible verses. I like to pick a different verse for each week or sometimes I review a chapter I’ve memorized.
On the weekends, though, I get to be home with my family! So I will walk with my siblings and sometimes my Mom will join us 🙂 During those walks, I enjoy quizzing my sister on verses, throwing a frisbee, or just having a good conversation! It has been so refreshing to get outside, even when it’s a bit rainy, snowy or chilly…my favorite is the bright sunshine though! 😀
Shiloh Photography
I really love hearing how people are using their walks to memorize scripture! Great job on week three Rachel!????♀️❤️
Rachael C
Spring 100 has been fantastic!! Just knowing that friends all over the country…err…continent are doing this together, it’s been lovely and such a blessing!
Rachel
So blessed to know you have been blessed by the Challenge, Rachael!! 🙂 <3
Flowersinmybasket
I enjoy listening to videos with my mom as we walk : )
Rachel
Those walks sound so fun!! 🙂
Laura B
I try to run a mile a day. It helps the time to fly if I listen to Marco Polos (videos friends have sent me in the last couple days). I’m able to focus on listening to the advice and sweet words of my friends and also get some good exercise.
Shiloh Photography
That is such a neat way to redeem the times on your runs Laura! Keep up the great work!???
Anna
I walk with my mom, my sister, and our neighbor…. So, we usually spend our time talking to each other and keeping each other company. Sometimes when I’m not talking to them for a few minutes, I take the time to think about all my struggles, and ask my wonderful Father to help me with them. ??
Rachel
Great way to spend your walking time, Anna!! 🙂
