Ninety days to a more….. Day 1
Me at Enchanted Forest. |
When I was young, I loved magazines. My mom would
buy me new issues of Seventeen and I would pour over the pages; admiring this
look or that outfit. She also bought Women’s Day and I would eagerly read every
article of 30 days to a more beautiful you; or ooh and ahh over the make-. over
pages.
Frumpy,
plain women would emerge as beautiful, sleek, stylish women. Cool hair, cool
clothes, cool make-up. Wow! I was impressed. In my teenage, young adult years I
would try to do my versions of a “make-over.”
In hindsight I realize I was blessed with good genes and looks and a
“fit-over” would have helped immensely.
So
now at 63, what in the world do I call a “me-over?” Don’t know only know that in the next 90 days
I’m going to try to be more health conscious in every way I can. I am somewhat
hampered by long work hours, but I’m going to try anyway.
Bible
in hand, I am going to gird up this project with prayers and promises that God
can renew my strength with His strength. That he can restore my youth. That I
can mount up on wings as Eagles, “run and not be weary, walk and not faint.”
Isaiah
So
here I am, looking out on my flowering cherry trees, fog shrouding the hills
with a blanket of white. New work week ahead of me. A million details threaten
to surround me with their own insistent fog of, “get it done!” but I will
continue to seek peace and pursue it.
Who
else wants to join me on my journey for the next 90 days?
I
think I will do some before and after photos; I used to love looking at those.
I’m
sure God has His own before and after photos of us. How glad I am that He sees
me through Jesus.
I’m
cold, it’s freezing, will warm weather never come?
Be
blessed and see you tomorrow.
Joy
will come in the morning.
