Let me share my verses from today and yesterday and then I'll report from the clinic!
Yesterday:
"The Lord will guide you always; he will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land and will strengthen your frame." Isaiah 58:11. It's not always easy, it actually really hard to trust in God and be patient when we feel as if we've been put out in a sun-scorched land all alone and nothing else can go wrong. Let this verse remind us, that He allows us to walk through places for a reason. He will always supply our needs, notice it didn't say out wants! He will strengthen us. He's always there.
Today:
"This is what the Lord says...'Seek me and live;'" Amos 5:4. It's so easy to get lost in the world and its desires. It's easy to get lost in our problems, troubles, struggles, just our life in general. We forget the reason we were made. God is saying He wants us to live. He wants us to seek Him with all our heart, listen to Him, follow Him and LIVE for Him. Not waste our life, like I've done these past few years. He wants us to enjoy our life. I think that we we commit to fully seek Him and His will for our lives, and we focus only on Him, we will begin to really see His plan for our lives unfold before us.
So the clinic.....Pretty much the same as last week. I was down like, point something so Bonnie just counted it as maintaining once again. I know I'm right on the edge of hospitalization range and just a few more ounces and they'll admit me. So, I really don't have a lot of playing room. I was a little worried that I had maybe lost some weight this week because I didn't really change anything I was doing from last week. Bonnie wants me to drink an Ensure at night to get in some extra calories, so I'm going to try my best to do that. She also wants me to cook another family meal. I don't know if I wrote about that, but she wants me to get away from eating something different from my family and always fixing my own food. So, last week I did once. This week she wants me to do it two nights.
I'm really ready to start working out again, so I keep using that as some motivation. All in all, it's still about the same. I've just still got a long way to go.
So proud of you!!!!!
