Forgive me when I whine. When so many people are homeless, hungry, unemployed, disabled, alone, and feeling hopeless, remind me to count my blessing because they are numeous. Thank you for all the things in my life that I take for granted. Thank you for the course I currently am on. Thank you for those who encourage me.

My weight loss journey is not a drudge, it is a journey with hope and joy at the end. My health is a gift, no matter how poor it is at the moment, it can and will change.

Lord, may I be a blessing to others as I have been blessed.

Amen
