Signs Part III
I have been praying for some time for God to help me lose weight. After church last week, I was telling a very good friend of mine about a conversation I had with my son about faith, I mentioned that it took place when I was getting to walk on our treadmill. I told him that I had this "great idea" that I could walk on the treadmill while playing XBOX, unfortunately for me it meant being in more pain from falling off the treadmill that I had from walking on it. To this my friend says that he and another member workout every morning and that I was welcome to join them. I had been praying for some time about my weight and here it was, all I had to do was take my own advice and "take the first boat". I am not normally a "morning person" and working out with them would mean getting every weekday by 6:00a to be at the gym by 6:30a. I had been praying for the last few months not only requesting help with my weight loss, but telling God that if I could get up by 6am, I would be able to spend 30 mins on the treadmill every morning, but not having much success in doing this. For the last week I have have been awake every morning before 6am when my alarm was set to go off. This is something I was not able to get done in the natural, but when I turned to God for help he made it happen in a way that I did not expect. I took the first boat this time instead of letting it go by once again and I can testify that Gods way is better than anything I could have come up with on my own.
