I love spring, the new grass, the buds on the trees and the bulb plants peaking through the ground. I find it interesting that the new growth and the newness of life during the spring months. Well, lately I have been really pondering my body and how I have not been really taking care of it. Fear has surfaced like fat in boiling water and I have never realized the fear that is in me. I have spent so many years running to food and spending lots of money. It is so comforting to me, but on the other hand, I really want to turn over a new leaf and be more obedient to my Father. It is just letting go of control and letting God take care of it. I am not sure where God is going to take me from here, I am not going to get hasty and quick to make decisions. I really believe that just know that I am having this problem is the first step. I also realize that I need to flood myself with the word of God. Holding what He says higher than what I want. Well, like they say, "Time for Spring cleaning." and I believe this is true. I appreciate all of you and I adore your prayers for me. I will be looking for an accountability partner. It is time to be accountable, so I will be praying for that right person and I am praying to take my flesh under control. It does not need to have everything it wants, because God is greater. I love you all and I will keep you updated. Love always Tanya

Ooooh, I love that. Spring cleaning ourselves. Good idea!
You go girl, I'm walking a treadmill each day. start out slow, go up to 3 mph, for 30 minutes to Praise Music! Jesus walks it with me!
Thanks for the encouragement. It is cool to have such awesome support.
I am so proud of you. Since I started weight watchers three weeks agao i have realized I am an emotional eater. I think I just replaced one addiction for another and right now I am stripping myself of all my other god's and focusing on the one true GOD.
Will be praying for you.
Thanks for the prayers. It has come to my attentions that I am not only an emotional eater, I worship eating. I have ran to it for so long, I have even been a surface Christian. It is sad that I have place food even before God. I will be praying for all of us and of course myself. Love ya.
Tanya, yes the old adadge creeping in again of "the emotional eater". My downfall is I have been heavy most of my adult life. I am drinking less coffee and am using less salt. Exercise is a constant struggle. We can help each other though, stay in touch....you will be in my prayers....nana C
