Well there has been some intersting developments in my life lately.A few dreams and answers to some questions about those dreams.For a long time now I've kept dreaming that I had gone back to our local bible university.This is the one that I attended one year of university back before I was married(15 years ago).I spent only one year ansd my marks weren't that good so I was asked not to come back.Well anyway,over the last year I have gone back there in my dreams.Getting an education.I was learning and attending classes, but missing some.Getting lazy sometimes.These were different dreams then I'm use to.They were repeative to say the least.I was also dreaming that i was in high school during this time and was not attending classes at all and expecting to pass.This dream kept on not making sense to me cause I already graduated from high school 20 years ago.The funny thing is in some dreams I was actually in class with one of my old teachers.As if I were taking the classes all over again.
In university I remember taking my 2nd and 3rd years there.But I don't remeber paying for them.I was wondering how they were getting paid for,but I wasn't too worried about that part of it.I just wanted to learn and spent my time learning.In the last dream I had finished my 4th year and had graduated.I don't know that my diplma said was my degree.
I asked God to tell me what that was all about.What I had graduated with.The special speaker that we had today abnswered my question.He talked about the university degree in obediance and in repentance.That I graduated from the university of God with a degree as an Obedient and repentant person.
I thought that this was a very interesting answer to my question.Lately I've been asking God to help me loose weight and to forgive me for eating so much.I asked God to help me to loose the weight.That if He would help me when I feel like overeating that He would remind me that I've already eaten and don't need to eat more.Or to choose a better snack then an extra sandwich.Like pick some fruit or some carrots instead of a bag of chips.This last couple of days has been a little hard and I've slipped a few times.But so far I've lost 14 pounds.This last week I lost 4 pounds.I'm excited cause my clothes r feeling loose now.I can actually breathe in them now.I've been out exercising too most everyday.
I feel as though I am gaining self discipline with the help of God.If it wasn't for God I wouldn't be able to loose all this weight ion my own.I just want to be smaller.I'm taking it one day at a time.One meal at a time.If I loose just 2 pounds this week coming great if more then even better.I'm taking it slow.I'm relying on God for my strength to not eat more then O need to eat.Tonight I feel hungry and I've eaten more then I should have today.So tonight I go to bed hungry.to prove to myself that I don't need to eat all the time just cause I feel hungry.
Thank U God for helping me to eat properly and helping me to loose all this weight(260 LBS). |

| Okay Maddie, you have me motivated as well! I will also work on my weight. My son died on 6-21-08 of sudden heart failure and we found out he was born with a genetically predisposed heart condition so we are all going to have our hearts checked and get our health in check as well. My son was very strong in his faith so I know he has a special place in heaven. He was a very gregarious kid who was in everything from starting on the varsity football team (state champs) to drama, performance choir, youth and government, fellowship of Christian athletes and he attended church twice a week and usually borrowed my suburban so he could load up with several of his friends. He had 1375 people at his funeral and over two thousand at his memorial and it was amazing! Last count was 114 people have turned their lives over to Christ (we had an open call at the memorial and funeral). Some were family members, teachers and friends. We are so amazed that God is still using him to save souls! Anyway, your blog confirms that I need to be convicted about this so we need to encourage each other! Your sister in Christ!!!! |
