For only the knowledge that we're understood Makes everyday living feel wonderfully good, And we rob ourselves of life's greatest need When we "lock up our hearts" and fail to heed - The outstretched hand reaching to find, A kindred spirit whose heart and mind, Are lonely and longing to somehow share, Our joys and sorrows and to make us aware...that life's completeness and richness depends on the things we share with our loved ones and friends!

"Some is better than none." I learned this during my Weight Watcher days, and I found it to be sooo true. IF perchance I take the attitude of denying myself something because it isn't 'on the diet', I find I can only do that so long before I end up binging on it. I have found from experience that if I have just a small serving and control it to that and not let it lead to a binge, I will be soo much better. This does not lead to over eating it and I feel satisfied and still in control..

Lord, please bless my workout. As I train my arms, let it remind me that I’m held tightly in Yours. As I work my legs, let it be only to follow you more closely. When I work my chest, may it be safely under a breastplate of righteousness. And when I hit my back, I’ll recall that I’ll never be attacked by surprise. And finally Lord, allow my beating heart to grow stronger, knowing that’s exactly where You live. Yes Lord, please bless my workout. I’m a temple, here to worship. Amen.
–Jimmy Peńa
This is from prayfit.com I really liked it and thought I would share it here.
Decide. Commit. Succeed. (It can be done! I will do it!)
1 Cor. 6:19-20 Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own, you were bought at a price. Therefore, honor God with your body.

The fire only refines; it does not destroy. We are to be brought through the fire, not left in it. The LORD values His people as silver, and therefore He is at pains to purge away their dross. If we are wise, we shall rather welcome the refining process than decline it. Our prayer will be that our alloy may be taken from us rather than that we should be withdrawn from the crucible.
Charles Spurgeon

WHYWEIGHT552's quote really inspired me, but I liked her own words in summary even better than the quote!
"~all over there's bad news everywhere and we have to remember that God is always working!!"

I feel like I'm going to botch this quote so forgive me! Joyce Meyer said something like "Stop talking about what the devil is doing and start talking about what God is doing!" I really like that because all over there's bad news everywhere and we have to remember that God is always working!!!!!!
