Where I am

This last week I have been struggling really bad. But after this weekend I feel so much better. I got some good "ME" time in and I feel energized and ready to go.

I weighed my self this morning and I lost 3.1lbs. I was kinda hoping for more then that but in all I am down 17 pounds so far. All this running, walking, and Hills are building muscle and It is making it so I don't see the loss on the scale but I know I am losing fat and gaining Muscle and I just need to keep reminding myself that. I went and tried on some cloths the other day and I am down a size to.

Like I said earlier I was struggling a lot this week. I was dealing with some major spiritual battles. I can not say that that is done because I can still feel it a little but not as bad. So I turned to Psalms and started reading.


Psalm 142:6-7
Listen to my cry, for I am in desperate need; rescue me from those who pursue me, for they are too strong for me. Set me free from my prison,that I may praise your name.

Psalm 143:6
I spread out my hands to you; my soul thirsts for you like a parched land.

Psalm 143:8-10
Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in you. Show me the way I should go, for to you I lift up my soul. Rescue me from my enemies, O LORD,for I hide myself in you. Teach me to do your will, for you are my God; may your good Spirit lead me on level ground.

Psalm 145:14-16 The LORD upholds all those who fall and lifts up all who are bowed down. The eyes of all look to you, and you give them their food at the proper time.
You open your hand and satisfy the desires of every living thing.


These verse started out with my crying out to God, and ended with him telling me that he will lift me up and satisfy my desires. WOW!!!! God is so good. I can not say that all is good but I can really feel God caring me right now. There are things in my mind that are still consuming me at times but It is getting much better.

So for today I am sitting here try to consume my mind with God and his word and to try to not let self take over my mind. I am praying that each day will bring more and more victory.

As I am finishing this song comes up. "Hillsong- From the inside out" What a great song!!!!!!!
