A look through my eyes

Thorns from the side of the road

March 22, 2008

How quickly a week will change things.  Somewhere in the past week I wandered off the road of “discipline” and began struggling in the brambles of “diet”.  The “pay off” was a grumpy, distracted spirit, a stumble that resulted in a fall (while walking the dog) and two and four tenths pound gain!  After wrestling with the whole angry at myself, temptation to self-sabotage and give up thoughts, I finally figured out the problem.  I’d listened to the lie that I could “do it myself” and proceeded down the thorny path of distractions.

This journey is NOT about weight loss, but about my willingness to be diligent in being disciplined in everything I do.  If weight comes off as a result of this discipline, let the Lord receive all the glory
