A New Song

WE INTERRUPT YOUR REGULARLY SCHEDULED INTERNET BROWSING SESSION TO GIVE YOU THE FOLLOWING COMMERCIAL:

(In my best Samuel L. Jackson voice)

Are you tired of finding yourself reciting the same speeches to God about your life improvements or lack there of?
Are you tired of having that one area of your life that just feels out of control?
Are you tired of waking up everyday and doing nothing about it?

Well I know I am! 

I feel great and I realized I'm over the sad songs involving disappointment, shame, and guilt about relapsing on the fat train. I'm tired of crying over being fat. I'm tired of feeling fat because I have nothing cute I can fit hanging in my closet. I'm tired of wearing the same shirt and pants repetitively due to my refusal to buy bigger sizes.

The song that has resonated in my spirit over these past six months is Greater by Tasha Cobbs. Some of the lyrics say:

"Better days ahead I'm living in the promise of God
A new day is here, I have a fresh expectation.
Got a new perspective and it's loud and clear
I'm not moved by what I see, only what I hear
and I hear greater, greater for my life."

This is where I am & where I am trying to stay. I have a new perspective and I'm adamant about staying in this space.

Psalm33:3 says "Sing a new song of praise to him; play skillfully on the harp, and sing with joy."

I want to praise God by doing His will and taking better care of myself. In depending on my will I'll be fat, unhealthy , uncomfortable, and unhappy the rest of my life. So I will gladly trade my will for God's will.

It is God's will:
  • For me to be healthy. 
  • For me to prosper. 
  •  For me to have love, joy, peace, kindness, self control, patience, goodness, faithfulness, and humility. 
  • It is God's will for me to finish what I started.
Yea Greater...this is my new song...What's yours?


If you're enjoying the reading, don't forget to follow the blog.

Lastly, If you're a fat chic like me stay motivated, be encouraged, and know that inside of every fat chic is a skinny chic waiting to come out.

YOU MAY NOW RETURN TO YOUR REGULARLY SCHEDULED INTERNET BROWSING SESSION.
