King County Home Values Increase
Great news! Recent reports from the northwest multiple listing service (NWMLS) indicate home values in King County rose 7.2 percent in July compared with one year ago. A slight indication that home values will continue to trend upward. This is great for homeowners who saw the value of their property continue to plunge downward over the last couple of years.

Scripture: Galatians 4:9
"But now that you know God - or rather are known by God- how is it that you are turning back to those weak and miserable principles? Do you wish to be enslaved by them all over again?"
Observation: Paul challenged the galatians to not turn back to their old ways of only following the law not the word of God.
Application: Allign your life with God not with the world. Is their any earthly good that can surpass or outweigh the love of God? Never forget where you have come from and where you desire to go. Learn from your mistakes so you do not slip into your old ways like the galatians.
Prayer: Lord help me put my faith in you not the world so that when I fall you alone will be the foundation of my life. Help me to be who you created me to be. Lord help me to not give into temptation as easily as I do. Thank you for the life you have blessed me with.

Training Ride
I had nothing going on today so I decided to go for a good long ride. I started out thinking i would go for around 40 miles depending on how i felt, but once i started riding i was feeling really great. So i ended up getting 60 miles in and it felt great. I'm definitly feeling motivated to train for a triathlon. I felt great for about 50 miles but the last 10 miles got to be really tough. Riding into the wind and i could feel my blood sugar droping. Could have definitly used another energy bar and i would have been better off but i finished with a blood sugar level of 93 so i was just fine. I'm definitly enjoying this beautiful fall weather; sunny with a little chill in the air! Whats not to like about it? Enjoy the weekend!

Tiger Mountain: West
Today I had a great 12 mile run at west tiger mountain. 2 hr 15 min of sweat and hardwork but it was definitly worth the effort. The view is pretty awesome too, Lake Washington and Seattle in the distance. I met an older gentleman at the top who hikes the mountain all the time but other then that it was just the wildlife and some great trails to run. The views from the top were pretty good but today was all about running hard and getting worked by the mountain. Tiger mountain is great because most of the trails are well taken care of but not finely groomed so there is still a lot of rugged terrain waiting to be conquered. Hope everyone had as much fun todays as I have! Go to tiger mountain...its awesome!

Scripture: Nehemiah 1: 8,9
"Remember the instruction you gave your servant Moses, saying, 'If you are unfaithful, I will scatter you among the nations, but if you return to me and obey my commands, then even if your exiled people are at the furthest horizon, I will gather them from there and bring them to the place I have chosen as a dwelling for my Name."
Observation: Nehemiah is begging the gracious Lord to forgive his people, the Israelites, for not obeying His commands. They acted very wickedly and therefore were scattered across the nations.
Application: No amount of good works can save us from sinning against the Lord. It is foolish to think we can somehow earn our way into heaven or receive a higher spot in God's eyes because of our actions. Know when to call on God because only through Jesus Christ can we enter the kingdom of heaven.
Prayer: Lord forgive me for the sins I have committed against you. Lord help me to rely solely on you and put my faith only in you. You are my savior and loving God. Please help me to be strong in you when I am tempted by evil.

Scripture: Luke 20:38
"He is not the God of the dead, but of the living, for to him all are alive."
Observation: The bible says, "In Christ we are a new creation." Dead has no meaning because through Jesus we are born again thus while death has a hold on the human body our souls live forever in Christ.
Application: Do not be concerned or overcome with fear and worrying about how you will survive the next year or even tomorrow for that matter. Focus your attention on the path Christ has directed you to and leave the rest up to Him.
Prayer: Lord God thank you for speaking into my life and calling me in the right direction. Lord no matter how much I fail you are always there to get me back on course. Help me to live for you and not get caught up in the trivial matters of daily life.

Scripture: Zechariah 13:9
"This third I will bring into fire; I will refine them like silver and test them like gold. They will call on my name and I will answer them; I will say, 'They are my people,' and the will say, ' The Lord is our God."
Observation: The Lord declares that two-thirds of the earth will be struck down and destroyed when the appropriate time comes. However the remaining one-third will be made new again and will be tested by the Lord.
Application: The trajectory of our life will present us with certain challenges that God has established to test our faith in Him. If we choose to take on these challenges by our self we will surely fail in the long run. So, put your faith in God so that He may take you places you could never get to on your own and show you things that you would otherwise not believe.
Prayer: Lord help me to truly believe that you have a plan for my life and that you are in complete control. Please allow me to fully trust you and look for your guidance through every situation. Keep me from becoming prideful and loosing focus of the purpose you have given me in life.

Scripture: Luke 13:24
"Make every effort to enter through the narrow door, because many, I tell you, will try to enter and will not be able to."
Observation: Jesus also describes the way to heaven as a narrow path where as there is a wide road leading towards hell.
Application: The path is never easy but the Lord promises us that if we knock the door will be opened. Truly seek God with all your heart and invest your life in following God's word.
Prayer: Lord thank you for choosing me to carry out your will. Please forgive me for the many times I fail and give in to sin. Thank you for your abundant blessing. Please allow me to overcome evil temptations and to follow your will. Thank you for this beautiful fall morning and for blessing my life with an amazing family and amazing friends.
