My Focus

Romans 12

Living Sacrifices

1Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God—this is your spiritual[a] act of worship. 2Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.


My strength is not my own. My determination is not my own. My success is not my own.

All Glory and Honor and Praise is YOURS God. I am so incredibly thankful.

It's so easy to be lazy. But hard work and determination always pay off and the rewards are more than we could ever really realize.

Upcoming goals! and The Greatest Thriver contest is coming to an end...

...and while it makes me sad that I won't have the assured times of meeting together with my fellow Thrivers, this is a small town we live in folks! We'll see each other!

I have two more specific goals set for the next several months. I want to be down 2 more sizes by August, and I have two....not one, but TWO 5K runs I am going to participate in!! And I am NOT a runner! But I will be! One is the first week of August and the second one is in October. A friend asked me if I wanted to do it and at first I was apprehensive, but when I stopped to think about it, I realized....I CAN DO THIS!!! It's only 3 miles!

Next thing ya know, I'll be doin' a mini! ;)
