Lord Jesus my savior, I want to take this day and celebrate
You. In celebrating I will continue to
practice patience and obedience. A day
of thanksgiving in honor of You. Lord I
thank You for seeing something in me that I did not see myself. I thank You for continuing to develop me in
my areas of gifting. I wait on you Lord
patiently and do as I am lead. Obedience
Obedience Obedience.
Obedience, as a young adult I rebelled against my parents in
a big way. Doing things that I knew was
totally against the way they had raised me.
As you see I said young adult, I didn’t dare challenge them as a teen, I
waited til I was GROWN lol My disobedience lead me down a path of
destruction. I turned my back on my parent’s
rules and most of all God’s word. I knew
what God’s word said, but I knew what I wanted to do, because I was GROWN.
My disobedience resulted in me being in several SO WRONG
relationships. For a period of my life I
did drugs, I went to bed with my morning pick me up on my night stand. You see I leaned on drugs and WRONG
relationships instead of God. I spent
over 25 years in the WORLD living as I saw fit.
That was a long time to be out of God’s will, as I reflect I know it was
my mother’s prayers covering me that kept me and God’s plan for me to one day
to be a living testimony.
I have no earthy parents, no husband, just me ! I think about this sometimes and a rush of
fear comes over my body. Then within
seconds I realize my Father sits high and loves me more than I could ever imagine. This instantly comforts me. My number one fear as I grew up even as an
adult was losing my mother. I could not
image life without her here on earth.
God prepared me for the day in bits and pieces and when her day came to
depart I was relieved. Now that’s God
! God shows his power in such different
like ways to me. He shows it in such a
way I know it is Him carrying me.
I will continue to practice obedience and patience ! I know how living outside of God’s will looks
and I don’t want any part of that. I use
to have a lot of what ifs; what if I had stayed connected to God at age 18 how
would my life look now. That’s the past
and I can’t do anything about it but learn from it and move on. I am thankful I know God for who He is right
now.
Tonight is Fit for the King, my continued prayer for the
group is that each and every one is blessed in a special way. That they leave feeling a sense of hope and a
deeper knowledge of God’s presence in their life. I pray that they are successful and as a
result are motivated to continue their journey of a healthier lifestyle. I pray that they see God’s reflection in
themselves and know that God made them and created them unique from anyone
else. That they seek out their gifting
and use it to glorify God. I pray for
leadership as we lead by example, continue to allow us to desire a healthy
lifestyle. Build our knowledge and
creativity to keep the class interesting.
Bless our coach as she is a wonderful example of leadership and a wealth
of knowledge and she pushes and encourages us to do our best job possible. Bless her in her journey.
My FA sponsor has given me permission to have rice/potatoes
or yam. YES Lord ! I am pleased about this. I have to weigh in tomorrow morning then next
Friday, if I gain then I will be taken off, but if I lose or maintain I can
continue. This is encouraging, so now my
meals will consist of protein; protein, salad, hot veggie, and potatoes/rice/yam. This is basically I balanced meal. I am happy and so grateful.
Praying a special prayer for friends and family. Lord You know their needs provide in a
special way. Show your hand of favor,
grace and mercy. Thank You Lord !
Beauty: I pray that all women embrace who they are
and live a life of purpose. This is more
beautiful than any MAC, NARS, Philosophy, Wet N Wild, Milani, Sephora, Ulta,
Dermablend that temporary enhances our beauty.
Let us not lean totally on cosmetics but work on our inner beauty.
I’m getting it in at True Image tonight ! Yeah
