What are you thinking about?

Hello Beautifuls!!

So I had a million things to do on my lunch break today (yes I'm being dramatic but stick with me here). I had a chiro appt (have to keep my twisted back in place), wanted to stop at Radio Hut and get a remote (since my angelic dog decided she needed a snack so sweet of her to help herself), I forgot my lunch so I decided since Radio Hut is right by McD's I am going because I CAN~ I have the power to stay within my plan and I want BACON so I got a bacon ranch salad with grilled chicken and an unsweetened tea. I only used about a tablespoon of ranch dressing wahoo!! Victory baby sweet victory!!! My emotions didn't even do a poor me why can't I have that juicy burger I smell pity party!! SCORE!! (i'm dancing a jig right now wish you could see it) So then I had to stop at the church and pick up the wonderful supper mommy dearest made for us. (awwwwwwww go ahead join in awwwwwwwwwww) She complimented my outfit and I excitedly explained that my sweaters (I wear a lot of longer sweater type things over my shirts~ my husband calls them frocks~ no idea but had to share) ANyhoo I excitedly told her how my sweaters don't get caught in my butt as much!! LADIES THIS IS VERY EXCITING FOR ME!!!!! I had the climbing butt and it was practically reaching for my shoulders which caused my sweaters/shirts to get lost in there and not find their way out! I was constantly tugging at my shirts when I would get up off my seat it is so annoying! Well girlfriends I still tug out of habit but I realized my shirt ain't lost IT HAS BEEN FOUND THANK YOU JESUS SWEET AMAZING GRACE!! And I really thought I was going somewhere with this story but turns out I'm really not...... I just wanna brag about my shrinking behind and tell you that you can do it too!! You have the power through God's strength and VICTORY tastes sweet!! DROP AND GIVE ME 50! NOW!!!!!

So last night I went home put on my sweats and did absolutely NOTHING!! I was mentally drained and just needed to stop & get myself together. I was still feeling a bit down so I decided to pick up my bible and just read. I thought well since I did tell you ladies to read psalms when you are depressed maybe that would be a great place to start. So I said a little prayer and opened to psalms and I believe with all my heart it was not by accident what I came across. Psalm 78 recaps the stinking Israelites wondering the wilderness trying to get to the promise land. REALLY GOD? AGAIN? This story is seriously getting old! So I'm reading and I'm pondering and it's just so clear how our thoughts get in the way of EVERYTHING!! God parted the Red Sea, he made rivers flow out of rocks, he made it rain manna so they could eat for pete's sake (who is Pete I'd like to meet him) and these people saw it with their own eyes!!! Ummmmmmm I would hope seeing that with my very own eyes would've been enough for me to do whatever God told me to do(you never know with me) but the Israelites still sinned and forgot of His miracles. They kept whining and moaning and focusing on how hard things were and most of them never made it to the promise land because of it. I don't know about you but I am getting my butt to the "promise land" peeps! I am working on my stinkin' thinkin' and I will have victory!! I am enjoying this life I have!! What a precious gift that I refuse to waste anymore of! Keep on trucking my beautiful people victory is near!!! YOU CAN DO THIS!!!
