DAY 36/365, 177 LBS, Down 5.8 LBS, TWL 7.6 LBS


I rediscovered a Bible verse that is really resonating with me right now:

1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
Be joyful always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.

It doesn't say anything about being joyful if the scale reads a certain number or if I fit into a certain size.  It says to be joyful ALWAYS.  Pray CONTINUALLY.  Give thanks in ALL CIRCUMSTANCES.  I've been focusing on this verse for two days.  It is amazing how this has changed my focus from me and what I can or can't eat, to God and how great He is.  I have also focused on how God has blessed me in too many ways to count.  I truly have a lot to be joyful about!
