Slow and Steady

I decided I was sick of our normal walking route this morning so we loaded up the stroller and headed out to Mobile's Municipal Park. It was such a gorgeous day! We walked/jogged up and down and through and out of the trails, sidewalks, and bridges. As the sweat was poring down my back I glanced over the stroller and saw my angel fast asleep. Oh to be the passenger! What a life! No worries, no stress, no fear. Just the wind against his face and the sun on his bare toes. He trusts me. He knows I will protect him while he sleeps. To be born into this world with a clean slate...to get a do-over on the choices we've made. Deep breath...not even worth thinking about really. No regrets. Trusting God and His plan for me. I know that if I didn't struggle with my weight I sure as hell would have some other struggle driving me crazy. That is why it is so important to breath and take one step/bite at a time. Do not get overwhelmed when you fail. Do not listen to the voices telling you to give up. It is an everlasting adventure and I plan to work hard and enjoy my life at the same time. Lord, help me eat less and move more. Help me forgive myself and move forward. Thank you for who you are and all you have done for me. In all this I pray that you are glorified. In Jesus name,Amen.
