prayer request

Friends, I mostly lurk and don't post as much as I used to, but I definitely need prayer. Two things are going on. (At least two that is!) 1) I lost a total of 130 pounds and have gained about 25 back. I know I'm eating too much and am not getting exercise. It's very depressing. 2) Lots of little things are changing in my life and I'm very down right now. I feel like I really need to get myself more positively focused, but am really struggling. If you'd keep me in your prayers I would appreciate it. God bless, Wanda

Hi Wanda - Prayers coming your way. Turn your struggles into positives. I know its easier said than done but keep the faith. All best - Kat

Wanda, It is a great 1st step to admit we are out of control. Good news - God is always IN Control. Give him the burdens and he will give you rest. Sally

Wanda, I believe you , when you say it is bothering you about gaining wt.After all , We have gone to great lengths to get to where we are so far. Each day , when you wake up, Look around you and think of the many things you have to be "THANKFUL" for. This really works for me!! I say "THANKS, LORD! many times a day!!!! One of the main things my husband and I do, is to go to the hospital and visit Church Brothers and Sisters. I believe, in doing this(1- We are out and among people,(2. We are able to see just how blessed we are. (3. We can be a Blessing to others. Wanda, I try and Remember Romans 8:28. This si such a powerful scripture and definitely gives me strength when I need it!! In 2006, My Daddy commited suscide and died very shortly. This has been such a devastating time for us. I have the confort of knowing that my Daddy is with God and is happy now. So you see, I, too, need your prayers. Please know, I consider it an honor to Pray for you.
