Getting Serious
There are lot of things I want to change in my life. I got a clear reminder of one of them when I got on the scale this morning, for the first time in far too many mornings, and find that while I’m not as heavy as I expected, I’m heavier than I should be.
I was happy that I’m still 38 pounds down from my all-time heaviest weight. But at one point, I had gotten close to 70 pounds from that weight. So I have relapsed.
There are other areas, like debt, where I need to make some serious changes.
The list could go on for a while.
I am also reminded of a bible verse, Jeremiah 29: 12-14, which says this:
“When you call on me, when you come and pray to me, I’ll listen. When you come looking for me, you’ll find me. “Yes, when you get serious about finding me and want it more than anything else, I’ll make sure you won’t be disappointed.”
So I’m working on a lot of things, redefining who I am and what I want out of life. So I can be serious about making it happen.

I’ve relapsed a bit too, on the weight thing.

I’ve been absent from your site a while. I love today’s entry, perfect timing. I also like Jeremiah 29:11. De
