an intentional action plan

Since April 9th I have made a change in my attitude towards eating and exercise. Through a stubborn refusal to move to a size 40 inch waist, I decided to shed some weight. Intentionally, I cut out bread and sugar for 90 days and kept pace with a regular exercise agenda.
The results ? I’ve lost 35 pounds !

This past week I came to the realization that my spiritual life needs some immediate attention. My prayer life had dwindled. My complaining spirit had increased. My attitude toward people had become less than forgiving.
And, most important, I was more concerned about my immediate desires, than the eternal needs of those who do not know Jesus.

I am praying that God will give me the same intentional action plan to honor Him, that He gave me to lose weight. It is ridiculous to think for a minute that what this world has to offer is better than the security of knowing Christ.

“… let us draw near to GOD with a sincere heart …” Hebrews 10:22
