The journey of a thousand miles begins with the first steps.
Beloved, You are Loved Absolutely!

This made me smile...and I'm still smiling.
ReplyDeleteTwo suggestions though: Since the bible reading makes your feel good, then why not do it even on weekends too and spoil yourself with God's word even more?
Second suggestion: Do the excercise thingie. I tell you, it's the best thing you could ever do for yourself, besides the bible reading, of course.
Enjoy slaying all your giants....looking foward to hearing more sucesses from you :)
Awww, thank you dear. I do get to bible reading and praying on weekends,but I decided not to make it an intention, cuz it is the weekend. However, on most weekends, I'm going back to Scripture to confirm sthg and God never stops hearing from me anyways. He has no choice. :)
DeleteFor a health, wellness and fitness 'fanatic', this is an area my family and friends would be surprised to hear I am flunking. However, I think I will get back to outdoor running tomorrow :) I still plan on stepping over my dumb-bells when I get out of bed for the month of Feb, but you never know. lol
Thanks. I appreciate you.
