To my dear readers, I know I have seriously neglected my blog now for a few weeks. Don’t worry I’m still alive and busy as ever. I’ve been really focusing on my weight loss team on sparkpeople.com becasue 2009 is the beginning of a slimmer, more healthier Tree! I’ve been blessed to have wonderful people on sparkpeople.com join my team so that we can be an encouragement to one another. So let me catch you up on a few things:
We celebrated Christmas! My husband really explained to me why he feels that we should celebrate it. It is a time of rememberance, family, love, appreciation for Christ coming into this world to save us from an eternity in hell. What he ultimately shared with me is that its a matter of the heart. God knows our motives and we certainly wanted to give Him glory and not worship a tree or anything of the sort. Christmas brings out the best in people. We found that people are more charitable, loving, and unselfish. In addition we also found that athesist and agnostic people want the celebration of Christ’s birth to be prohibited and stopped. Which is exactly why we will continue to celebrate Christ’s birth.
New Year
Hubby and I decided some things have to change for 2009. We are tired on being carnal in the sense of not tapping more into the essence of God. We are understanding the importance of living a holy life and a spiritual life. Everything from our diet to our clothes to our dialogue and finally who we are around is going to change for the glory of God. We are going to make a conscience effort to really seek God’s face concerning some things in our life. Now that the new year is coming what changes are you going to make to increase your spiritual life?
If I can find some pics of our house for Christmas I will post them.
Sis. I’m proud of you and Manny. I see God ministering in your lives as well as hear God speaking to you through others. Hint, hint. So, yes, seek Him while He may be found….
Peace
