Happy Mother's Day

I was appreciating my children this evening and a prayer came through me. I prayed that I will raise them with patience, prayers, and persistent. I need patience to be understanding, tolerant, and give a hearing ear to my children. I need to be prayerful and learn to fight their battles on my knees - my mother's practical living. I need to be persistent in teaching them and showing them the ways of God.

I count to it a privilege to have my kind of mother. I am blessed and privileged to be a mother. I pray for everyone desiring to be a mother that your answers will come and that God himself will comfort you.

To Miriam in Tanzania, its a privilege to be a part of your life...thanks to 10 full years of fulfilled dreams! many more to come!

Marking the Finish Line - The Red Belt

So yesterday I went shopping and there was this lovely black top with a red belt that really caught my eye. Instead of purchasing the top, I felt led to buy a medium sized red belt that fit better upon arriving at my desired weight. I bought the slim red belt and I am looking forward to wearing it.

These days I am learning a lot about letting go and making room for better things. A few weeks back I felt a strong urge to get rid of all my designer skirt suits that I have collected over the years in my plus size. The rationale? why hang on to the old while working hard to attain the new? It felt good cleaning my closets of clothes and accessories alike. Infact, I felt some weight lifted.

It has been wonderful to see the scale read back to me in decreasing numbers. I have heartily wrote, "Thank you Jesus" beside each decreasing weight log. It has been wonderful slipping into formerly tight pants with ease. I have celebrated being able to shun cakes and pastries and have reprimanded myself whenever I gave in to the ever lingering temptation of almond cookies and the likes. Nonetheless, I am thankful that I have been able to pick up from wherever I find myself and moreso because God has really helped me to take one day at a time.

I look forward to working out every morning because I do different things, from the elliptical to the 3-2-1 circuits to walk the walk. The variation in exercises has kept the monotony out of my workout sessions and made them rather enjoyable. I have my days, my really low days, but so far I am just taking it one day at a time to the finish line.

Prayer: So help me Father
