Body, Mind & Spirit 2013

As 2012 came to a close and 2013 approached I felt a tugging that I should set some God-center goals for my life for this upcoming year. Then I was reminded of Proverbs 29:18~Where there is no vision, the people will perish and I knew that there was no way I was going into this year without a God given plan. So after some nudging from God and much prayer God has laid out some wonderful stuff for me this year. This doesn't include goals for my family or my marriage as I believe that those should be done with my family and my husband.

My Body!

  • I will lose 50 pounds over the next 12 months. (I am down 18.2 as of today but they don't count, that was 2012!)
  • I will participate in some sort of exercise at least 4 days per week. (My body and my mind need this)
  • I will continue to eat healthy and drink enough water on a daily basis.

My Mind!

  • I will read a good solid book at least once per month. 
  • I will blog/journal often and openly.  It is my release and I want to share my life, my story and my God with you.

My Spirit!

  • To put God first in everything I do!
  • I want my image to be more like the image of God in this upcoming year than it has ever been. Oh, how I long for this.
  • I will read through my bible in it's entirety this year.
  • I will begin a written intercessory prayer lists.

THIS STINKS I MEAN IT, IT REALLY STINKS! I don't even know where to start. As most of you know my husband has an 18 year old daughter, her name is Bethany. Bethany came into my life when she was only 5 years old. So as you can imagine as the years has gone we have became not only by marraige but by building a relationship mother and daughter. Bethany turned 18 in January and the fun really began. I hope you can hear the sarcasm in my voice. She had literally turned into this kid that we don't recognize anymore. Okay so I know that I wasn't the easiest child to raise and that I nearly gave my parent a heart attack when I married my husband whom already had 2 children when I was only 19 but I promise you I was listening to God. I mean look at us 11 1/2 years later. We are doing wonderfully and love each other more than we did then. I see Bethany running with the wrong kids, doing things I never would have dreamed of. Then she sends me a text message last Friday(here is the ki

Peace, Quiet, Stillness and yet why can't I enjoy it..... It's Sunday morning and I have sent my family off to church is why... I am so suppose to be with them but after the last few day I know that I cannot sit through Sunday School and then morning worship.. My body for one is so sore and stiff it would never make it. I feel like a old lady( no offense to anyone out there but this is for the birds). Secondly I fall asleep at the drop of a hat and I believe that would be quite embarrassing. So I sent my Hubby and boys off this morning without me. I knew I had a great husband but he has really proved himself over the last few days (not that he had to). I had my hysterectomy on Thursday morning and so not to interrupt the boys schedules to much I got up early that morning and went over and had my mom drive me to the hospital. Donnie stayed home so he could get the boys off to school and he got to the hospital in plenty of time before I went back to surgery. He and mom were the f

I'm amazed at the difference. So I finally got a new scale and I have actually lost a total of 17 pounds over the past 6 or 7 weeks. Some have wanted to see the difference and here ya go the top picture was taken in May at Eli's birthday party. The bottom picture was taken 3 days ago at Sea World with the boys. Boy am I glad I lost the weight and started exercising I never would have been able to do what we have done this week without having done that. The river walk, Sea World, The Natural Caverns, & The Wildlife Ranch. It was all really nice I'll post more picture of our adventure later. Love to all. Beverly!
