So… here I sit trying to think of how I can express myself and be open with what has been going on in my life recently.  Without going into too many details… I just have to say that God has been faithful and good.  I don’t know where I would be right now if I didn’t have Him to hold on to. What has gotten me through these tough times is the Bible, lots and lots of prayer, music and… EXERCISE!  I’m soooo extatic to say that because usually, I would turn to food before.  My love of running has increased, and i’ve started to play basketball again - my #1 sport. 

I’ve also been reading a lot.  The Bible has been my guide & refuge and I have just finished reading the Fred Factor by Mark Sanborn and am currenlty reading a 90 day devotional by Donna Partow called Becoming the Woman God wants me to be.  Both books have helped me reflect on my life and really find the good in the smallest things.  I have been reminded that no matter where I am or what i’m doing, I need to do it all with joy and think about making a difference in this world.  I know that God has a completely customized plan for my life and that He allows everything to happen for a specific purpose.  I just need to trust in Him.  I’ve also learned that it’s not enough to think new thoughts or adopt a new belief system;  I must take action!  And that includes every single area of my life.

So… If you are reading this and going through a rough patch in your life right now… I just want to let you know that everything will be OK in the end. Find hope in the Word of God that says:

And after you suffer for a short time, God, who gives all grace, will make everything right.  He will make you strong and support you and keep you from falling.  He called you to share in His glory in Christ, a glory that will continue forever…” 

~ 1 Peter 5:10

Thanks for reading!

God Bless You.

If you forgot to brush your teeth last night…

If you forgot to brush your teeth last night, did you decide this morning to throw in the towel and never brush your teeth again? Since you’re obviously a slob who doesn’t have enough self- discipline to remember to brush your teeth, why bother brushing them at all if you forgot to last night?

Of course not.

So if you had ice cream for dinner last night, or didn’t exercise yesterday, or gained a pound this week, don’t throw in the towel! Make a healthier choice for dinner tonight by eating something lean. Go for a short walk. Weigh in again next week.

Just do NOT give up.
