One week has passed since I last posted about me trying valiantly to get healthy. Progress is being made slowly. I went to the gym 3 times last week and I will go again 3 times this week.
I hold out hope that as the semester progresses I will succeed in my goal.
Speaking of Goals, remember back when you were a child and you were asked to right down what you wanted to be when you grew up. I think I probably wrote about wanting to be a teacher, which is exactly what I am doing. I remember thinking longingly about the future and what it would be like to buy my first house and settle down in a good neighborhood where I could cultivate new friends.
Sometimes it's painful to remember those simpler times. In the current financial state of our nation I'm sure I'm not the only one going through rough times. It is easy to get down and be overwhelmed by the worry. It can really be defeating, but then I remember that God has it all in His hands. He knows exactly how much money we need to pay bills and live every month and He protects us from ourselves. So never give up hope that you can accomplish the goal you set out for yourself.
More important is to remember that we are instruments of God and it is His plan and His goal for our lives that we must live up to.

I'm so hard headed sometimes.
I forget how simple the call of Christ is...."Follow Me".
He doesn't say where.
He doesn't say when.
He doesn't say much about the future.
He wants us to trust him today.
Love from Attalla.....
