I know, I'm an awful blogger. I can't find time to update if my life depended on it! Now I'm back and will try to update every once in a while.
My summer workout adventure went quite well! I lost about 5 pounds and have not taken a body fat test again, but I know I've gone down at least one percent. Anyway, now I've moved back to school and am busy getting ready for all that God has for me in the coming fall semester. I've purchased books and registered for classes and it's a great feeling. I feel like I'm stepping into my dream that I've dreamed about for so long. I have applied for volunteer hours for my schools strength and conditioning program. I will be starting the interview process very soon. Your prayers are extremely appreciated!!
This summer God has really been working and changing me a lot. I feel like a completely different person. There are a few quotes that have really hit home for me during this time.
"What you need to know about the past is that no matter what has happened, it has all worked together to bring you to this very moment. And this is the moment you can choose to make everything new. Right now." -Beth Moore
"I am confident of this: I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait for the Lord, be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord." Psalm 27:13-14
I have really been praying that I will see the goodness of the Lord this semester. As I've moved back to school I have been experiencing the love of God and his goodness. He has provided me with a wonderful new home, an excellent education and wonderful people! Not to mention, the gym is really nice too. haha! The Lord is faithful and He wants to be your best friend and number one priority. I believe that in order to step into the fullness of God and all that He has for you, He must be our number one friend. He is a jealous God and does not want anything coming before Him. This summer, I wanted to spend more time with God, but I feel as though I wanted my physical change more. He taught me how to change my priorities and I ended up with not only a physical change but a HUGE spiritual change. He has challenged me more than ever to, "wait and see what I will do!" I am so excited to see what God is going to do!!
I challenge you to look at your life and where your priorities lie. Is God first? If not, I challenge you to make Him first so that you can step into all that He has for you! Wait on the Lord, whatever He has for you is perfect!
