Sunday, October 23, 2011

Even though I woke up much earlier than I would have preferred, I thank God for the thoughts that were on my mind as I opened my eyes. I just had a feeling that something great is on the horizon for me, possibly even today. I feel reinvigorated. I prayed that my pastor would say a confirming word, but I also spoke some things into my own life. Sometimes you have to say and think a thing until it manifests itself, but then you also have to ACT when there is something required of you. I'm going to work out after I come from 8 am church service. As I'm doing so, I'm going to focus upon all the victories I've already had in life, inspite of the mountains that I've had to climb. I am a victor, not a victim. I will win in this weight loss challenge. No turning back. I'm pressing forward. No doubt, fear, plateaus or feelings of being overwhelmed are going to stop me.

    Your pastor's message reminds me of a current song on Christian radio - "Beautiful You". It reminds me of my beauty to God, even when I simply don't see it because I am looking in the mirror. Glad you had such a blessed Sunday!!

    I love it when you can wake up in the morning and have a positive groove going on with God and yourself. My pastor also brought an inspiring message that said that when things seem like it's not in your favor, just say better!!! I am glad you have had such a blessed day!

    And sure enough there was a confirming word from the pastor. Title of the message was, "Lord, show me what you see in me." Bishop said, "you are a masterpiece because you are a piece of the Master." He talked about how the GPS knows where you're going, but you still have to drive it. Most of us have at least an inkling of knowledge about how to live a healthy-balanced life. Likewise we know how to lose weight: Eat less, move more. However, we all still have to DO it. Thank you all for the encouraging blog comments. My everyday is that God would just use me. :) We're in this together.
