Answered Prayer

Waking up feeling energized is the best feeling ever. I am enjoying my husband and my son. I am not in la la land distracted and missing the moment. I am present. I am enjoying my life. In bible study this morning I was overwhelmed with joy. It just dawned on me all of a sudden how much God loved me. Maybe because we were in a chapter that primarily focused on His love for us as His children. He really is in to details though! I have been praying, "Lord please help me lose weight" for over 20years! He has finally answered this prayer. The crazy thing is however, that during that 20 year journey of being chubby and frustrated, He was growing me. I wasn't ready to experience freedom in the area of eating yet. He needed to refine me and teach me a lot more about being dependent on Him and finding joy in all circumstances. He is blessing my diligence and my prayers. Thank you God.
