Attitude of Gratitude Calms the Spirit.........

Matthew 8: 23-27 "Jesus Calms a Storm"

If He can calm the wind and waves then we know without a doubt Jesus will calm our hurting hearts, turn our sorrow into joy and rejoice in new life and new beginnings.

It's so easy to lose the most simple things that we already know!  How awesome it is to be reminded!  "I'm weak in my shoes but strong in His".  Ok for those of you who really know me you know how significant the birds are to me!  They remind me of such a soaring freedom that I continue to seek.  They take me back to my childhood knowing my grandmother and I share that common bond of our love for God's sweet birds.  What a sweet reference God gives us in Matthew 6: 26-27 saying if God takes care of these little creatures what makes us think He won't take care of us!  (vs.27) You can't add any time to your life by worrying about it.

In this busy life with work, family, friends, problems, etc.. sometimes it's just good to STOP and be quiet, just listen and meditate on the path we we're given and the path we're taking.  To know and believe how incredible the power of thankfulness is and how that can give us so much peace!

God's Spirit is such a powerful thing and I'm not one to want to waste it or not embrace it!

Love having moments of clarity and strength!  So awesome that I have the ability to utilize every part of me, emotionally, mentally, physically and spiritually to bring these things to the surface!  I would like to think of myself as someone who has and can conquer all things  through God's help!  

I simply share my most inner core thoughts to encourage all!  This all brings it back home to taking care of us through, prayer, exercise and healthy diets!  It all plays a part in not only our health but who we are from the inside out!!

Peace be with you today, tomorrow and always!!!!!!!!  Carrie

Whose Perfect?....Not Me.......!!!

Who says we have to look perfect, eat perfect or even act perfect?  If you find somebody that does please let me know I'd love to shake their hand!! Ha!  When I talk to people about making changes in their life that doesn't mean everything at one time.  It's all in moderation and take one day at a time until you reach some kind of a goal for yourself!!  Obviously since I'm a weight loss/wellness consultant I'm focused on helping people make a plan for their diets and exercise but making changes in those things alone will never be long term!  Make reasonable expectations for yourself that way you won't let yourself down if you slip. 

We're human and we're going to fall at times whether that's taking care of our health, our relationships or any other thing in our life.  So get back up and do it again, and again and again, until finally you've made real changes in your life!

So I've said it before it takes 28 days to break a habit and I hear around 21 to form a habit.  Which do you need to focus on?  Well me?  Both! 

Don't beat yourself up when you fall, just dust yourself off and persevere!!  Trust me it's worth it! 

Mark your calendars May 19!!!!  If you want to form new habits for a lifetime you need to be there!!  Let me know if you want more information!!!
