God opened my eyes 3 yrs ago and my heart a week ago
Thank you Hislady! If you didn't have the link in your signature line I wouldn't have known this was here!.
I use to be a part of a bible study group @ work pre surgery. But I didn't see what was happening to our study group until after my surgery. When I came back to work after surgery, I stopped coming to the lunch table where we would have bible study as I began to use my break to exercise. I only came to the table one day a week for bible study. I wasnt missing my time spent there any more, as only after I spent less and less time there, I began to realise that I and another friend were just gossiping, so I began pulling away.
A few weeks down the line after WLS another x- co worker, who had moved away out of state came to visit us. And said she missed her prayer ladies. I felt embaresssed, and had lunch with the girls from the table and expresssed my embaressment. I wasn't singleing anyone out, I take responsibility for my actions. So I pulled away slowly. More than a few people noticed my relationship changing with one co-worker inparticular who I was very close with. I guess I saw so much of myself in her that I didn't like, I had to change.
Anyway that was 3 yrs ago, 3 yrs ago since wls! It opened my eyes. About a week ago God gave me a dream, and it was our study group back together. I felt as if the Lord had placed this back in my heart and this past Monday we restarted up! I am so excited! I never stopped attending church or bible study through my church, or the marriage fellowship, I think I just needed to move on at that time from the lunch group in order to grow properly.
Have any of you had your eyes re-opened after your surgery?

Exercise is not a LUXURY!
Exercise is a NECESSITY
