Family Goals
1. Purpose to be home more in 2008.
2. Love one another, prefer one another, be kind and tender-hearted to one another.
(Family Verse for 2008, Ephesians 4:32 "Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you."ESV)
Personal Goals
(Revised from last year)
1. Read my Bible and pray every day possible.
(Growing in grace to do what I know I am called to do, pursue holiness.)
2. Seek out tangible ways to encourage others as often as possible.
3. Purpose and pray to eat only when I am hungry, stopping when I am full, not stuffed!
The way to Heaven is ascending;
we must be content to travel uphill,
though it be hard and tiresome,
and contrary to the natural bias of our flesh.
Jonathan Edwards

IF YOU ALWAYS DO WHAT YOU ALWAYS DID
YOU'LL ALWAYS GET WHAT YOU ALWAYS GOT!
Dottie's Weight loss Zone
I've not said a lot about this, but I joined Weight Watchers 5 weeks ago. I was at the end of my self, so to speak. So far I've lost 11# and feel so much better. I can't imagine going back to the old way of eating. Anyway, I just wanted to let the world know that I am taking my health serious and want my outside to reflect the person I am on the inside, ultimately bringing glory to my King.
I've sometimes thought about joining things like that, but I just can't picture making different meals for everyone. I know that my family wouldn't eat half of what I would make. How does that go with you?
I'm so glad you are making changes in your life that are encouraging to you. I pray you continue strong in it. :)

I've been trying to develop better health habits too! I'm so proud of you for sticking with it. The first few days are always the hardest. It's almost like breaking an addiction I think.
I will pray that you will be able to make good choices over the holiday and won't fall back into bad habits.
Hope you have a good 4th!
Leviticus 20:26 says, "You must be holy because I, the LORD, am holy. I have set you apart from all other people to be my very own." This blog is my place to remember this journey I am on and God's goodness to me. I am glad you are here. Welcome.
