Trust

Woke up without an alarm clock (unless you consider Daphne one) at 3:45 this morning, I couldn't fall back asleep. I finally went and laid back down about 6:30 when Nathan got up, but didn't fall asleep until around 8. I woke up around 10ish and felt like half my day was already gone... I made breakfast, did my devotional, retouched my hair, and ran a few errands. Just feeling rather run down the last couple of days, I hope that exercising will help to eliminate that problem.

I'm not feeling so hot, so I'm going to hop off of here and watch my DVR'd Biggest Loser.

Thoughts from today:

PURPOSE DRIVEN LIFE
God smiles when I trust him completely, obey him wholeheartedly, when I praise and thank him continually, and when I used my talents and abilities. He created me to be the exact person that I am, no mistakes. I should be praising him for the gifts that I have all the time. Every act can be an act of worship if he is at the forefront of it. The only time God is unable to look upon us is when sin enters the picture. He gave us everything for a reason, now it's our turn to appreciate it and give him the glory he deserves. I am so blessed in my life and I am certain I could be praising God more for it.

BIBLE IN A YEAR
Today's passages:  Genesis 14, 15, 16
A battle ensued and the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah fell into tar pits. The people that survived fled, along with Lot and his wife. Abram got word and set out to rescue Lot and the people, he succeeded. The king of Sodom was grateful and praised God with Abram. Abram wouldn't take material items for a reward just the food that his people ate at the feast. (Genesis 14)
God told Abram that his rewards would be great and that we would have an heir of his own. God told Abram to count the stars and that his how many descendents he would have. He also told him that another battle would ensue, but this land was given to Abram and his descendents. (Genesis 15)
Apparently Abram shared the news of a coming child with Sarai. Since she was barren she felt it necessary to have Hagar, her handmaid, become Abram's new wife. Hagar conceived and Sarai despised her. Sarai treated her terribly and she fled. God found Hagar and commanded her to return to Sarai. He promised Hagar a multitude of descendants. Hagar's first born son was named Ishmael. (Genesis 16)

FLYLADY
Let's see... well, another day I didn't do much. I kept the kitchen clean, no dishes in the sink and all that jazz. I might still work a bit in there tonight, but we'll see. The sink is still shiny!

COUCH-TO-5K
I went to the gym by myself tonight! I'm pretty proud, I have to admit. I'm not proud however of the ridiculous dinner I ate at On The Border an hour before... I'm feeling pretty nauseous at this point.
I did 5 minutes on level 5 on the stationary bike because all of the treadmills were full, then I attempted to do workout 1... I made it through about 15 minutes before my calves started to ball up. I stretched them out and walked home. Tomorrow has to be better...
