Day 2

So, I started it again. Yup, the classic "New Years Resolution." I joined a weight loss program and today is "day 2". It's amazing when you see pictures how different you look when we see ourselves in the mirror. Lets say if I took my weight from before I got married and compared it to what I weigh now, it's a 70 lb difference. That's a whole lot more of me! Well, with a recent back problem (slipped disc) and a significant family history of medical problems ... it's time! I'm going to P.T. for my back and going to be starting a rigorous exercise program. So a month from now when I'm done my fast of computer time (and other "fast" obligations) I'll let you know how things are going.

I Corinthians 6:19 & 20 says "What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the holy ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's."

So ... if my body represents the temple of God, I don't want people to say .. "now that's one BIG temple!" LOL I need to glorify God with my body. Maybe I'll do a before and after picture? NOT! I will give God the glory that I'm in better shape and can praise Him more without getting exhausted! Now that's a goal! Worship harder and longer! Hey, I could count worship as exercise towards my daily routine! To God be the glory!

Oh yeah, one more day to Blog! I'll write something tomorrow.
