I have to get real with you here today. I have not been in God's word like I should be each day. I am really ashamed about not posting to the blog at least 4 times each week. This is not who and what I want to be right now.
It is interesting when I look at my current situation. For those of you who know me, you know that my weight has been a constant battle. I have gained 15 pounds since May. This is not who and what I want to be right now.
I have not been in prayer daily. This is hard to say but I feel like I need to be totally honest with you. I know that depression is a problem I have faced in my past. The weird thing is that I am a happy depressed person. Weird but true. I let depression steal things from me. It is stealing my time with God, my prayer time and my health related goals.
I really needed to read these chapters this morning. Chapter 8 has been my battle cry as I sit and reflect on how the last weeks/months have been.
Here are some truths that I needed to hear today:
-The Spirit intercedes for me in my weakness.
-God created me for a purpose.
-God is for me, not against me.
-Nothing can separate me from Him.
-I am a conqueror.
-Nothing I have done can take His love away from me.
I really needed this reality check today. I am making a plan to get back to my best me. I know that I can count on your prayers and encouragement as always.
If you are not your best self right now for whatever reason, give it all to God. He knows. He loves. He wants us to fulfill the calling from Him.
Thanks for letting me be raw and honest today. Thanks for the love and kindness you show me here.
