Day 17

Cutting back on sugar made for an incredibly trying day yesterday. I was miserable. Today I should have kept up with the trend, but sadly I caved and had icecream. 3 drumsticks. 

I also didn't get my run in today. Though I grilled beef franks and I FINALLY planted my raspberries. All I need now is to buy mulch/bark and cover the ground to help eliminate weeds!

There are a lot of things falling into place for me. In trying to simplify life. I trying to control less and surrender more. 

I'm not in charge of my outcome in life. I do have choices and when I'm connected with God, He won't let me down. 

There are some things I do in life and I wonder why I made such choices. I'll follow a prompting of the Holy Spirit and then that same day second guess abd feel selfish and get anxious that I did something wrong. 

Even as I write this I am reminded of  Phillipians 4:6-7: 6 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. 

My heart belongs to Jesus. Everything I do I want to do for the glory of God. I want to be healthy and make smart choices so I can fulfill Gods calling on my life.
