...was total waste of my time since the class was a DVD that basically explained book word for word. At least it seemed that way, but I guess it helped me to fine tune my focus. I am closing in on my 1st month anniversary. I know it is time to shift into a higher gear.
Today I was like Jacob; I wrestled with God all day long on whether or not I should go to this class. I even missed my normally schedule workout (which I plan to make up on Saturday). Now that I think about it, that is a strong indication that there is major blessing involved. When Jacob walked away God gave him a new name, a new identity. I had every excuse in the book, but I just couldn't find peace in heart. I mentioned in one of my earlier post that I was using a 4-tier strategy to get into shape, but it actually 5 tiered. The fifth and most important tier is prayer. I know I cannot do this alone. I NEED SUPERNATURAL HELP!!! When Eve took the fruit, it sent humanity on hell-bent path to hell. Not just in the hereafter, but in daily life. Even with my "most best" intentions, I somehow manage to screw things up if left to my own devises. BUT thank God, he has a redemption plan that I have accepted and have been redeemed from hell and death. As a result I have excess to God through prayer, and boy o boy has he been holding me accountable, cause I asked him to. He is taking his job seriously, example: having me go to that class! LOL!! So I had to come back to that place again, say Lord if I am to succeed in this I going to need a WHOLE lot of help from you on this one. Exercising is one thing, changing how I eat is whole other story. With God ALL things are possible including this, but I must submit myself to it. These blogs may get a whole lot more interesting, cause it's more than I have excess food available to me. Hey, we'll see! I thank everyone for their support and prayers, I feel them.
