Amazing Grace

I woke up from a nightmare. Afraid, I sat up in my bed trying to rid myself of the frightening images of my nightmare. I looked around the room and suddenly memories of horror stories and 가위 stories began to flood my vulnerable mind. I sat there trembling at the fears of this world, and the weight of everything began to crush my soul.

Then out of the corner of my eye, I spotted the glow in the dark cross I had stuck onto my wall above my 4x6 family portrait. "God is Love". I closed my eyes and prayed, asked for God's protection upon my family, my friends, and for myself. Then peace swept over me and a calmness settled into my agitated soul. For nothing can separate us from His love, no demon, no angel, absolutely nothing. God's grace is amazing. Without Him, I would be reduced to nothing. I don't need anything but Him.

He is everything to me.

Gluttonous

It's been 60 days since I've started the P90x program. 60 days of hard work, 60 days of sweat and blood, 60 days of pain and suffering. Endeavoring with all my might.

And then came Thanksgiving week. I am very disappointed in myself. No self control. Too much food. Every time I take my shirt off in front of the mirror, I look away in utter disgust.

I think it's time to restart the program. I always knew that 90 days wouldn't get the me the results I've wanted. Not with my inconsistent dieting. So therefore, I will restart from day 1. And this time, I will do it right. No more excuses, no more meaningless breaks, no more doggin' it.

Time to put the hatchet in my gluttony and get to work.
