Just some encouragment

Today I'll be honest my alarm went off at 6 and I was like um, I think I'll text Andrea and tell her I'm too sore. But I love that the "accountable" part of me was like no she'll go alone and without you and want kind of friend is that??? So yes sore and all I went however I was able to get educated further on more Advocare products that I didn't knew where out there and what they do for your body and how they help well my soreness!!! :) Needless to say I really enjoyed the last two mornings. I have an absolute love for her and her family and not only what they have done for my family, but what they do for every ones families. We talk about Jenny as a loving mother, sister, daughter, aunt, friend and co-worker. It is no wonder they were close friends as they are the same person. :)

The last two mornings easily for me could have been "pitty" mornings, however I had someone I had to be accountable to. Huge gain for me HUGE. I made the commitment and I don't like to not full fill commitments. However I started my day with a "freshness" "renewed" "ready to take on the day".

Point here is that you need to be accountable to someone and make commitments, it will make your life style change journey (weight loss challenge) much more easy and make you feel more accomplished.

So didn't mean to go on but here are somethings I have found this morning while reading and looking for some things for my mom and sister.

"Anger makes you smaller, while forgiveness makes you grow beyond where you were"

"Women will always be examples of right living to their children. Showing your kids what forgiveness looks like will always be one of your most important examples."

Colossians 3:13
Be gentle and forbearing with one another and, if one has a difference (a grievance or complaint) against another, readily pardoning each other; even as the Lord has (freely) forgiven you, so must you also forgive.

"As a woman, you are not automatically assigned the job of "chief worrier." Instead, fill your heart with trust, hope, and God's peace. You'll sleep so much better at night"

"It's in those excruciating, dark and raw moments that we feel GOD...maybe for the first times in our lives"

"Sometimes the hardest thing to do is to wait for God to show you what's next in your life. But just know that God is never late and it's always worth the wait"

Galatians 6:9
And let us not lose heart and grow weary and faint in acting nobly and doing right, for in due time and at the appointed season we shall reap, if we do not loosen and relax our courage and faint

Don't forget that God has filled your heart with dreams. When you choose God's path to those dreams, the doors will open. God wants you to be happy more than you do.

"Hope is faith holding out its hand in darkness"

Don't be afraid to talk to God every single day. Nothing is too hard for Him. Every prayer is like planting a seed of hope. You never know when God will send you a harvest.

John 15:16
You have not chosen Me, but I have chosen you and I have appointed you (I have planted you), that you might go and bear fruit and keep on bearing, and that your fruit may be lasting (that it may remain, abide), so that whatever you ask the Father in My name (as presenting all that I AM), He may give it to you

Take the time to listen to God before you make your own plans. God's idea will always work better than yours

Life is too short to compare yourself with everybody else. God has a very special plan just for you

Make up your mind you're going to make a difference to somebody else. You can be a blessing, you can say something positive to somebody else, and you can focus on making the most out of every moment.
