Day 2

I will be writing 2 posts for today since I just couldn't yesterday. It was just an exhausting day.

Today (yesterday, Sunday 10/2/16) was just an awesome day. I woke up about 15 minutes late, but it certainly did not dictate my day by any means. We got ready and headed out to church. Austin has choir practice at 9:00 AM, so we have to get out of the house by 8:15. Daniel and I go get coffee and enjoy early Sunday morning together during choir practice.

Morning worship was amazing, as usual. God just flowed and overwhelmed me. Every aspect of the service was phenomenal. We also had communion, which we did differently this time. We went to another member in the church and swapped our prepackaged sacraments then partook of them together. Then prayed with the other person.

How does this relate to a "Healthier Me" you ask... well, by me submitting to God and allowing Him to reign supreme in my life instead of my will brings me to a healthier state and attitude which in turn helps my eating habits.

We sang a revised hymn Jesus Paid It All during music worship. As we sang it I was reassured that indeed Jesus had paid it all and I did not have to be bound to sin or anything that hindered any kind of growth in me. To say it differently, I was reassured that Jesus' death on the Cross will help me be free of the chains of horrible eating habits and the captivity it has brought my soul.

God does not desire us to be in chains to our habits. Habits can be changed or broken if you so choose. It can't be done in our own strength--only in His strength and power can change come. If you have things you desire to change don't fuss or whimper about it--do something about it.

Our God is a mighty God, THE only true God and when we ask Him for help to better us in His will and way... He listens and acts accordingly.

God bless and until tomorrow...

P.S. For lunch I had a well seasoned hamburger patty (made by my hubby) covered with pepper jack cheese and coleslaw. It was soooo good.
