Reclaiming My Life- Day 1

Many times in life we get off track and end up on a path that isn't the best for us. Certainly, it isn't God's best. But God can help us find our way back on the right road.

I feel like I've been wandering around in a desert looking for a drop to drink. For a long time now I've been struggling with weights that I wasn't meant to carry and being crushed under all of my worries and troubles.

I woke up this morning with a new purpose. With God's help I am striving to reclaim my life. It probably won't be easy. There will be obstacles and tests along the way but I'm trusting in my heavenly Father to guide me on the right path. Great is the Father's love. He has called us to great things in His name.

My Goals for Today:

Marriage: To bless my spouse.

Attempt: My husband loves a clean home. Even though he is not here, I can honor him by doing things that would bless him if he were here.

Mental: Get out of the house and enjoy other people!

Attempt: Going to take Clara to a free movie this morning with my mom's group.

Parenting: To be a consistent parent today.

Attempt: To write out some simple rules for my children and to place them somewhere visible. We will go over them tonight before bed and implement them starting tomorrow.

Physical: Make one stride to eat healthier!

Attempt: Drinking 64 oz of water today.

Spiritual: Start the day on a good note- despite how I feel!

Attempt: Find a quiet place for five minutes to read my Bible and pray- even if it means locking myself in my bathroom.
