new day

Amazing that every morning you wake it is a NEW day. New? amazing that now matter how old you are, you have a chance for a NEW day.

A day to start fresh.

"how will NY152 Respond today". (ya gotta know I love my ol movies....)

Spending time starting my Day.... expecting to Hear from HIM and Live unto HIM today! Putting HIM first in all I do!

Child like faith..... hear the CHILDREN singing. BE His Child today! Trust HIM for EVERYTHING!

An absolute MUST - 64++ oz of water with Lemon today!

I recalled that at the Spa's there is always a Giant Beautiful Glass Container filled with Ice Water and Slices of Lemon, Limes or Oranges.... Ready to GO! Reminding you to drink each time you walk by. I think I'm going to do this too. Each day prepare this and set it out VISABLE (how dumb we don't do what we know to do...)

Now raise up those glasses! Salute!

Move that mountain

Zechariah 4:6

⁶Then he answered and spake unto me, saying,

This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying,

Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts.

Matthew 17:20
He replied, "Because you have so little faith.

I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed,

you can say to this mountain,

'Move from here to there' and it will move.

Nothing will be impossible for you."

I AM THE MOUNTAIN - I need to be moved! It is myself that gets in my way.

My habits, self will... "nature vs nurture stuff".

When I don't start my day R E A L L Y centering myself in HIM. Taking the moment to SAY "this is the day the LORD hath Made". Then committing my day to Him. Taking time to TALK with HIM, Walk with Him, Sing to Him, Read his Word.... Yikes!......

He is my purpose, my direction... my strength and my Joy....

When I don't start my morning out like that... then I fall - NO,NO, NO - I step off of the path (ah, I was starting to give myself an excuse saying "I fall". Saying fall is an opening to an excuse. I may fall but mostly I CHOSE to step off the path, willingly, knowingly... stupidly (Not really a word) like shoving a piece of banana bread in my mouth... or calling someone a Jerk.

Yet, I know even a fall occurs mostly because we're NOT looking the right way.

Psalm 119:105

Your word is a lamp to my feet

and a light for my path.

John 1:14
The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us.

MOVE MOVE MOVE ! ! !

Not by power, not by might but by His SPIRIT .... MOVE IT!

Salute!

“Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. See if there is any offensive way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.”

- Psalm 139:23-24

Keeping a Journal aka blog

I've been thinking recently about this bog/journey/quest ..... whatever

I believe that the "blogging" has been the motivation factor.

I wake up in the morning and .... blog.

It "centers" me... reinforces my desire to change my lifestyle habits to those that bring "Health and Wellness". I think it, write it, hear it, speak it.... therefor receive the strength to then DO IT.

That thought propels me to think of the scriptures in the Word of God that tells me:

Deuteronomy 11

¹⁸Therefore shall ye lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul, and bind them for a sign upon your hand, that they may be as frontlets between your eyes.

¹⁹And ye shall teach them your children, speaking of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.

²⁰And thou shalt write them upon the door posts of thine house, and upon thy gates:

²¹That your days may be multiplied, and the days of your children, in the land which the LORD sware unto your fathers to give them, as the days of heaven upon the earth

Feed the Spirit FIRST

Feed the Body SECOND

Feed the Mind THIRD

I think this is the correct order of how to start the day.

When I feed my spirit, I then become motivated and centered in what I need to feed my Body (food and exercise).

Then I feed my Mind, since it's received the needed nutrients it needs to learn.

Salute!
