Reshaping My Worry

As I journey through the RIA challenge I am pinpointing my eating habits and my "triggers" to my eating. Trigger #1- Worry- when I am worrying about a problem, big or small, I eat. I eat without thinking about what I am eating. I am striving to be conscious of what I am eating and when I am eating. Now to address the worry. At church we ran across this prayer and I thought it needed to be shared with everyone.


Lord, this is Your problem to fix.
You take control.
Let me know what you want me to do if I'm to be involved in the solution.
By leaving it with You, I will it solved.
Amen


Let's not limit God by trying to fix things on our own. He wants us to rely on Him.

A New Journey Begins

Today I am beginning a new journey.  I try to model for my children how to be polite, how to make responsible decisions, and be their best selves. I need to model for them more with my actions than my words.
A big part of this journey will be physical. It is time to become a Fit mom and not a Fat mom. I am reading the book Reshaping It All by Candace Cameron Bure.  I am going to approach this like everything else in life and leave my petition in the hands of the Lord and expect Him to do great things with my efforts. So here's to a new journey and to Reshaping the Raglands'!
