Scripture of the Day

“I tell you, my friends, do not be afraid of those who kill the body and after that can do no more. But I will show you whom you should fear: Fear him who, after the killing of the body, has power to throw you into hell. Yes, I tell you, fear him.”
Luke 12:4-5 (New International Version)

AMEN!!!

Loose that fat!

It’s funny. I went back to look at my post saying that it is time to get started with a healthier lifestyle and I noticed that I said that I wanted to “loose” some weight. I was going to correct it, because I meant “Lose”, but then I thought about it again. I need to loose some things in my life that are not of God. I need to get rid of some unhealthy behaviors and thoughts. I need to loose the fat in my diet and in my body…

I tell you the truth, whatever you bind on earth will be [ Or have been] bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be [ Or have been] loosed in heaven. Matt 18:18

And when Jesus saw her, he called her to him, and said unto her, Woman, thou art loosed from thine infirmity. -Luke 13:12

He is good;His love endures forever…

All the priests who were there had consecrated themselves, regardless of their divisions. 12 All the Levites who were musicians—Asaph, Heman, Jeduthun and their sons and relatives—stood on the east side of the altar, dressed in fine linen and playing cymbals, harps and lyres. They were accompanied by 120 priests sounding trumpets. 13 The trumpeters and singers joined in unison, as with one voice, to give praise and thanks to the LORD. Accompanied by trumpets, cymbals and other instruments, they raised their voices in praise to the LORD and sang:
“He is good;
his love endures forever.”
Then the temple of the LORD was filled with a cloud, 14 and the priests could not perform their service because of the cloud, for the glory of the LORD filled the temple of God. 2 Chr 5:11-14

I actually experienced this on Sunday. The choir was singing the 23rd Psalm and the Spirit just dropped and it was beautiful. Pastor tried to stand up and preach and she couldn’t. The glory of the Lord had filled the place. People were saved, lives were changed forever. It was something that had to be seen. We had always talked about having “Chronicals Experience” and now finally, it happened…
God is GOOD and His Mercy endures FOREVER!!

Time to get it started!!

Well, officially today I start the 6 wk body makeover… It’s time! I’ve got to do this and I am ready. It’s really about planning ahead and actually cooking. (That’s a foreign word lately for me.) I’m trying to loose at least 20 lbs. and I’d like to lose the bulk of it by Feb. 21. At least I have a goal. I know I probably won’t loose it all by then, but I want to have at least 5-10 lbs off by then. I’m tired of feeling like this and it is time to take action…

Is it time for you to loose some spiritual as well as physical weight as well? Now’s the time! Get started with me, as this is a spiritual as well as physical journey. Let me know what you are doing and how. Let’s motivate each other. We can do this thing!! Let’s pray one for another…Are you with me?

Happy New Year!!

Okay!!! It’s 2007… A year of 7, the number of completion. May all of you have a blessed 2007 and beyond!
Being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.- Phil 1:6
