Good Morning everyone :)
I am happy to report that although I had a slight gain this past week I am well aware of why and how to correct the behavior this week. I over indulged over several different days during the past week & failed to compensate for it with movement (Exercise) so it was not shocking to me to see the weight gain show up on the scale.
I have so many rambling thoughts running through my mind so in no particular order here goes ~
why is is that when we think we know something we are faced with the realization that we really Don't know it at all?
As for crocheting ideas why do I see so many creative crocheted items in my mind's eye yet fail to know how to capture them on paper or in actual work so that I could put it into a pattern? I want to be able to take it from my "mind's eye" to finished product complete with working pattern so others could make them too ~ God Help me with this please as I really want to see this come about.
I will go "there" ... yes I will .... my faith. My faith is in God. And since it is I am confident that although I am not perfect I can strive for / towards perfection (HIM) God is perfect, God alone. No one else is even close to perfect . So as I struggle to live my life in a manner that brings Glory to the One who is Worthy of all Glory I hope my little light can shine in the darkness that tries to snuff it out ...
Women need to recognize that they are precious in God's sight ~ in fact God LOVES YOU ~ but if you don't "feel loved" you may miss out on what God is trying to show you, to bring you through etc ... so often we ( we as women) fail to be completely honest with ourselves. (No offense meant if you have managed to be completely honest with yourself ... the truth is I know how hard it has been for me to be that open & honest with myself ~ often I hide the unpleasant sides of "me" from "ME") if you have managed to be & remain completely open & honest with yourself (which means you are thereby completely open & honest with/ & before God) kuodo's to you and would you share any tips with me?
What do you hide from yourself? do I still have anger issues? I mean yeah when someone cuts me off or someone drives rather stupidly I vent a bit of "rage" but honestly that can't be the full force behind my "vent"... or can it?? ... let's face it I'm not perfect so therefore I must make driving errors just like the ones that will tick me off ... anyway bearing oneself completely before God is hard (for me anyway) and slow & progressive ~ but worth it every time I manage to bear a bit more of the hidden recesses of my heart before HIM and find that He knew it all along & forgave me for it already & covered me in His Mercy & Grace allowing me to face it and move past it ... not that everything that has been "hidden" has been "bad" some things that have come to light have been positive & uplifting ... like I do have some strength to make progress in my daily habits towards my God :)
and there is an ever increasing burden on my heart for women ~ all women everywhere to come to the knowledge of God's love for them no matter what they may have done or been through ... I have a book being birthed in me and that is scary ... I know I need to shut myself up with God and move when He allows me to move so that I can accomplish what He has in mind for me to accomplish.
That's it for now I'm tired ... it's hard to open up & reveal the things that lurk deep within or actually some things that lay right on the surface that we like to think aren't seen because they are right in front of our eyes...
Be Blessed Embrace the Love of God in your life & if you don't know HIM as your personal Lord & Savior then ask Him to reveal Himself so that you can know HIM fully. He is there waiting for you. He won't turn His back on you when you call out to HIM.
