JOURNEY OF SELFLESS DISCOVERY

HELP!!!! I did it again. Why can't I stick to a plan? I am getting more and more frustrated with myself. I am eating too much and even though I am exercising, I am NOT eating right. When will it end?
I know the main ingredient that I have been leaving out of my life has been God. I started going back to church a couple of weeks ago and think my family has finally found a church home. I am writing in my journal and having a Quiet Time. Upon reflection these are the things I incorporated ...

I know the main ingredient that I have been leaving out of my life has been God. I started going back to church a couple of weeks ago and think my family has finally found a church home. I am writing in my journal and having a Quiet Time. Upon reflection these are the things I incorporated the last time I had major success. Well...the biggest component was putting God first, family second and me third. I have the opposite mindset lately.
I am on a journey of selfless discovery. I want to see what God sees rather than what I want to see. Talking to Him first and then making sure my family and other usually missed opportunities are taken cared of prior to my selfish desires. Perhaps I will see what God sees and He will allow me to join His ride. I am looking forward to a change so that I can impact the world for Him instead of impacting me for me and subsequently screwing everything up.

**** I am diabetic and have been for over 10yrs. I'm having to look here on the site and anything on the internet. All my doctor tells me that my blood sugars look good and nothing else. On my team, I have posted a lot of information that I have been reading online. You are more than welcome to read them as well. Maybe we learn together.****

Love love LOVE your avatar!!!

I've auditioned for plays a few times, but I don't have much experience so even the locals don't want to take a chance on me. If I could dance I'd probably have an "in". I think I could learn to dance well, but I don't already know how. Not too many roles in musicals would allow me to just stand there, sing, and look pretty. I used to really want to be in a play, but that's changed. I just want to sing now, wherever I can!

Go to mvm.com (My Virtual Model). You choose your height, weight, hair color, face shape, body type, and clothing. Then you'll need to save it to your computer so you can upload it to SP. Have fun creating them!

Hi! I've just created a new SparkTeam called Team Victory where members can boast of their own victories and applaud others' victories. I hope you'll consider joining this team. Thanks!
