Break

After my 2nd Triathlon attempt, I travelled to Germany for business. The problem is that once I came back to my homebase, my biological schedule has gone haywire. I ended up not following the routine schedule I built for the last 2-3 months after my back to back triathlon attempt.

I started slowly beginning June. And now I have not gone back to the full cycle of training that my body has used to handle. I ended up going back to the 78kg weight range.

Got to force myself to get back in routine!!

Loyalty

What would elicit such extreme loyalty as David’s men? I sat in awe understanding the motivation of these men as they stole water over enemy lines simply to satisfy they thirst of their leader? Was it personal? Have they seen something ‘out-of-this-world’ in David’s leadership skill? Was it his looks? Or charisma?

Read along 2 Samuel 22: 13 “During harvest time, three of the thirty chief men came down to David at the cave of Adullam, while a band of Philistines was encamped in the Valley of Rephaim. 14 At that time David was in the stronghold, and the Philistine garrison was at Bethlehem. 15 David longed for water and said, “Oh, that someone would get me a drink of water from the well near the gate of Bethlehem!” 16 So the three mighty men broke through the Philistine lines, drew water from the well near the gate of Bethlehem and carried it back to David. But he refused to drink it; instead, he poured it out before the LORD. 17 “Far be it from me, O LORD, to do this!” he said. “Is it not the blood of men who went at the risk of their lives?” And David would not drink it. Such were the exploits of the three mighty men.”

Talent vs Gift

I remember scripture words – “To whom much is given, much is expected.”
