Dear Friends,
Today I embark on a journey that felt a long ways a way when I signed up. I will be traveling to a structured, results-oriented, comprehensive health and fitness experience at a live-in weight loss program.
I know that I won’t lose all the weight I desire in two weeks time. I do believe that living in a controlled environment, and under the direction of trainers and nutrition experts, can only help me to learn about changed behaviors that will bring about results. My hope is to lose twenty pounds five times over.
Please pray for me in the coming two weeks. I welcome however you feel led to pray, but let me also offer you what is on my heart.
Pray that I will have stamina and endurance to complete the many hours of exercise we will participate in each day.
Pray that I will keep a tender heart to learn about what God wants me to see and experience.
Pray that I will be an encourager to those around me, cheering them on and being encouraged by them as well
Pray that I will be free of injury and aches and pains that could distract me from working hard every moment of every day.
Pray that I rest deeply each night and awaken refreshed each morning.
Pray for my family, co-workers and friends at home. I am very thankful how they step up in order to make this all very possible fro me to be gone for two weeks.
I wake up this morning thinking about one of my favorite verses….Psalm 19 vs 14
May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart
be pleasing to you,O Lord, my rock and my redeemer.
Thank you for praying for me and with me…
