My Breast Cancer Miracle
It was a sunny day in California when I got up to go to a routine doctor appointment to talk about the result of my first ever mammogram. I got in the car, not thinking about God. Listening to a CD mix of secular 70's hits ... It was just a gorgeous, breezy day. I arrived at the office, got out, locked the doors and made…

The favor of God
Proverbs 8:35 For whoso findeth me, findeth life, and shall obtain favor of The Lord. Proverbs 19:12 The king's wrath is as the roaring of a lion, but his favor is as the dew upon the grass. Having God's favor on us is better than riches and gold. My husband went to work...he had unwittingly left his wallet at home. He…

Is This Group Right For Me? My Question for Chaplynn
Well, I posed a question Chaplynn about whether or not this was a non-denominational group. I am not Catholic, and I was truly concerned that I could be getting into murky waters with regard to my faith and what I believe. We agreed that others may have the same question. I asked her if this was leaning toward the…

Danger at my door; Jesus in my heart.
It was 6am, Monday morning when my husband kissed me goodby as he went off to work. I decided to go back to bed for a bit; so I laid down and drifted off to sleep. I was awakened by the sound of the doorbell ringing persistently. I glanced at the clock and noticed it was 10am. Who in the world? Well, perhaps it was dad.…

Do You Ever Feel Worthless
Have you ever felt so low that you didn't feel like God can hear you? Or that if He does, you don't deserve a response? I have felt this way myself. Feeling like there is no coming back from a situation is a hopeless feeling that comes from satan. If he can separate us from God's love; then his job is done. We know that…

My son and A Lesson After God's Own Heart
I have always taught my kids that there are blessings in giving; and even more so when you really don't have it to give, but you do it out of the kindness if your heart. One hopes that their children takes what you say to heart. But leading by example is the best way. So, sometimes when my kids were small, we would be…

Picking Up With God's Help

I was in the hospital on the pediatric floor, with my niece hooked up to…

I totally blew it yesterday...
So. I woke up and got on the scale. That's what started my downward spiral. Despite killer 60 minute workouts and staying under my calorie goal each day, the seemingly impossible happened. I gained five pounds. I was so upset at this turn of events, I downed 800 calories worth of popcorn! Why did I do that? That didn't…

Tired of the guilt...
I'm so tired of the guilt. I've been guilty my whole life. Convicted, harassed and ostracized because of my weight. Disapproving people and family watching my food. A little remark cutting me into the heart, "Do you really need that extra serving?". "Are you going to eat that?". And then, me, out of defiance saying, "I'll…

Newbie to site...come join me.
So. I am new to this site. I have battled my weight since I was 11 years old. Literally! I was watching my weight in an era when Twiggy was the ideal. What a mess society has and continues to make of our self-images. When your idea of what is perfect starts at such a young age, it's hard to shake it off. Like many of you,…
