Lots of decisions have been made that will drastically change life for me and my family. We are putting our house on the market and preparing to start a new life in a new town. I am such a planner that all this change has my mind working overtime. I toss and turn at night, praying that my mind will stop. Despite all the crazy, I am not biting my nails or grabbing bags of chips to consume, which is probably what the old me would've done. I realize that no matter what happens, God is my stready, trusted friend that will never leave me or forsake me. My will may not be His will, but I can trust Him with what is best for me. I am relying on that trust as I focus on God and not my current circumstances. I have not been doing my food journal, but listening to my hunger signals. I will start journalling again when my mind can get back to it. I have decised that I will not let excercise or journalling be my success factor, but the scale and depending solely on the signals my body is giving me. I am reminded in scripture that all things (material) will pass away, but God will last forever and He only cares about How I manage myself into His purpose and for His glory.
1 Corinthians 9:24-26 (New Living Translation)
24 Don’t you realize that in a race everyone runs, but only one person gets the prize? So run to win! 25 All athletes are disciplined in their training. They do it to win a prize that will fade away, but we do it for an eternal prize. 26 So I run with purpose in every step. I am not just shadowboxing.
