Age Is No Barrier To Inspiration

92 year old, Clarice Artis ~ started swimming at 75 ~ Australian swimming champion ~ swims 32 laps daily. I'm sure you can imagine the inspiration we received as Clarice shared with us about her personal experiences of overcoming the odds and "giving it a go" without letting the excuses get in the way.

Physical fitness is necessary for optimal physical well being, just as spiritual fitness benefits the soul. The Bible, too, acknowledges that while physical exercise is important, spiritual exercise is more valuable. How's your daily exercise routine? What type of workout do you need to do?

Remember, "Don't put off until tomorrow, what can be done today."
Now I'm heading off for a walk...

1 Timothy 4:6 (MSG) ~ "Workouts in the gymnasium are useful, but a disciplined life in God is far more so, making you fit both today and forever. You can count on this. Take it to heart."
