One thing I know about myself, I won't workout if I don't have someone pushing me to do it.
So what do I do? That's right, join a bootcamp....an early one! And it is actually fantatic! So here is my new morning routine. I wake up at about 5 AM and stay there until about 6:30 AM. When I get home, my fantastic husband has eggs, toast, and coffee waiting for me. I sit and eat while I catch up on overnight e-mails and facebook. Then, I sit down for some one-on-one time with God. It is so fantastic!! I absolutely love that my life is finally feeling some balance!
With my new devotional time, I've been learning soooo much! I'm doing a study on cultivating contentment. This has really brought to mind the fact that I'm NOT content unless I'm shopping or eating out or doing what I want to do. I have given up on what I know that God wants me to do and started solely focusing on what I want. This is not okay. Where did that girl who was on fire for God and wanted to do His will only? I'm going to find her again!
"How long is your to-do list, your shopping list, or your wish list?"
"Ask for satisfaction SO that I can sing praise to God!"
"You were made for more than this world has to offer you. Our yearnings, longings, cravings, and hopes are telling us something: there isn't enough love, peace, hope, friendship, and intimacy on this earth to completely satisfy us. We will always want more."
Tomorrow I dig deeper, ponder & pray, and find trinkets to treasure.
**Start a fire in me, let the flames run free. Burn away the dross, Holy fire of God. Let it begin, let it be new, let me used for you sake bringing glory to your name. I can live knowing that you, reside in my heart, oh Lord you are a fire**
