Seems to me like the perfect opportunity for 're-starts' and new beginnings. So here I stand (or lie...since I'm layed out with a terrible sinus infection at the moment), ready to make some changes in my life. I'm laying my entire life before the Lord on this first day of the year and pray that I don't grab any of it back...ever!
The area of my life that most needs healing from Him is health and energy...not just for me but for my entire family. So that's the first area to be offered up completly and unconditionally. I really mean it, and not as I've done it in the past...'here Lord, I'll offer up how much and when I eat, but please still allow me to eat all the garbage that I WANT!' Nope...I'm now saying to Him, I want to follow your Way and do Your Will...entirely! I've seen how certain foods have affected my son's health and behavior...thank You Lord for showing it to me. Now show me exactly what needs to be done around here. Please guide us on this new adventure. Amen.
