Get God, get fit!


17 This is what the Lord says—
    your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel:
“I am the Lord your God,
    who teaches you what is best for you,
    who directs you in the way you should go.

Isaiah 48:17

Who's direction do you tend to take? Yours? The one your parents planned for you? The boyfriend who pushes you his way? Your high school teachers? 

I believe that no other direction is the right path because it is forced. Gods path is a choice you take. He doesn't push us to do His plans. He gives us free will. A choice to believe in Him and take faith in it, that His ways will be better, even stronger than ours. He doesn't force Himself upon us. 

"In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will make your paths straight." Proverbs 4:7

This new, healthier path I have been on since April is something I have prayed about and wanted God to put a fire inside me for it. That He wouldn't let it die out. That I wouldn't fade out. To wake up anew, restored, rested and ready to complete the task of working out and eating better every day. 

1 Cor 6:19-20
19 Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own,20 for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.

I choose to give God the praise on this path He has kept me on. The strong will to not give up. May His name be on the tip of my lips and in my heart to give Him the praise! 

Happy Monday!!!!!!!
