reminded of His anointing

"Now it is God who makes both 
us and you stand firm in Christ. 
He anointed us, 
set His seal of ownership on us, 
and put His Spirit in our hearts as a deposit, guaranteeing what is to come."  
2 Corinthians 1:21-22

Responsibility lies on my shoulders to make wise decisions for an entire group of people.  Feeling overwhelmed at times, it is a daily battle against fear and worry.  Once a few more i's are dotted, it will get easier for a time, but for now I go on keeping fear at bay only by the grace of God.
God spoke the above verses to me this morning in my daily devotional and my soul leapt for joy at the reminder of His power...His control...His choosing...His anointing.
God's got this.  
It's going to work out for His glory.  
He will show Himself mighty.
One step at a time, He will lead me along His path, not only for me, but also for those I am to lead. 
He is that awesome!

"But God has surely listened and has heard my prayer."  Psalm 66:19 As one who has struggled with weight all of my life, seeing the ups and downs in jean sizes became my reality.  I would lose some pounds only to face a stressor in life and see them return and bring friends along for the ride.  I spent years believing lies, yet secretly hoping for a better reality.  Lies that I am not capable of overcoming my sweet tooth and that I am just not the workout type, topped the list.  I have never really lacked self esteem or self confidence; I know who I am.  However, I know from personal experience, others define me by what they first see.  Having been a plus-size lady for years, I was treated differently, intentionally or not, when I dropped pounds. My health journey to where I am today began back in 2010. It is amazing that things do not happen accidentally, even if they seem to in the beginning. Actually, as the pieces of my story have come together, this story begins w

home of the Braves

As a metro Atlanta resident, it seems almost a requirement to go to a Braves game to continue living here.  I grew up watching baseball and loving the game...and have been to a few games in St. Louis, Cincinnati, Detroit...and of course, Atlanta.  The problem for me going to a Braves game is purely mental...having been a Mets and Cardinals fan for years, I just haven't the love necessary for the Braves to call me a fan. However, as with many things in life that I haven't particularly enjoyed over the years, my boys make it so worth my time and heart.  I go watch the Braves because I love my boys...and my boys and I love baseball.  Well, they love what they know of the game...still in training, but getting the hang of the lingo and SOP's of a baseball fan rather well. There are a few things that remain the same from stadium to stadium..."the wave" (Braves' attendees do not always get into this, which is very disappointing), organ music to lead you to yell &q
