Monday Morning Question of the Day

Lately I have been very UNdisciplined in lots of areas of my life-
eating, exercise, time with the Lord-
and boy can I tell.


I can tell in how I feel, in how I think, in my attitude, in my heart.
In all three areas, I KNOW I'm making poor choices-
I actually think as I make them, "I shouldn't do this" and yet I still do.
It makes me so frustrated with myself and so disappointed in myself.


But instead of beating myself up over it anymore
(as I have been doing for weeks now),
I've decided that today is a new day and God's mercies are so thankfully new every morning.

So today, I'm going to do something about it.
No more whining, no more complaining,
no more beating myself up over my lack of discipline.
I'm going to make three short term, realistic goals.


Today I'm committing this week to:
1. Exercising 3 times this week.
2. Making better food choices-
which includes NO candy/cookies/cake/brownies/etc.
3. Making my Bible study time a priority-
ahead of and before of TV, FB, computer, etc.


So what are your goals for this week?
Will you share them with me?
I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength.
Phil. 4:13
