2012 was a challenging year but such a good year! 2012 was my year of redemption! As I look back on it I am so humbled and so so thankful! God carried me through some challenging events and He never never forsakes us! ahhhhhhh so in love! ♥
I am not gonna lie I enjoyed eating whatever I wanted and not gain weight. I never experienced that before. In the past if I went on a two day binge I could gain five pounds back so quickly and sometimes more but for whatever reason these last three months I've maintained my weight. HOWEVER if I'm going to carry out God's plans for my life it's time to get back in the healthy boat because let's face it I am not feeling 100%. I get tired easily, I am weaker, I feel lousy, etc.. So I started Insanity today and only got through the fit test! I am exhausted! (((sigh))) I lost strength and I can't expect to just jump back in where I left off when I took a three month break. It's going to take hard work, consistency, dedication, renewal of my mind etc...
Make friends with your treadmill peeps YOU CAN DO IT!! God has amazing plans for your life but you have got to take care of your body where the Holy Spirit dwells!
YOU WERE MADE FOR MORE!!
This also makes me think about my relationship with God. I can't just live life my way and fall into the arms of God when things go bad. Of course God will be with me everytime I fall. His mercies are new everyday PRAISE GOD but if I want to truly live a greater life for Him I need to walk in His presence every single day even on the good days! Sometimes I have a tendency to take back control when things are going well. I am determined to break that habit! This year in 2013 I want to be with Him every moment of everyday! To crave Him! To desire to walk in the Spirit and to stay tuned to His voice leading me.

Keep in Touch with God- Joyce Meyer
Blessed (happy, fortunate, prosperous, and enviable) is the man who walks and lives not in the counsel of the ungodly [following their advice, their plans and purposes]... But his delight and desire are in the law of the Lord, and on His law (the precepts, the instructions, the teachings of God) he habitually meditates (ponders and studies) by day and by night.
Psalm 1:1-2
Keep in touch with God today; stay tuned to His voice. You may have a plan for the day, but God may lead you in a totally different direction if you are sensitive to the Holy Ghost. Be brave enough to flow with what you feel in your heart God wants you to do.
Today is going to be a good day. Listen for the voice of God to lead you. Be determined to walk in the Spirit and stay in the flow of God's leading today.
