Fit Bit (Happy are those whose God is the Lord)
I am a single mother of three wonderful young men. They bring me great joy on a regular
basis. I have spent the past 24+ years
of my life thinking of them, cherishing them and trying, my best, to be a good
mom to them. My best has often been, not
so good. As I watch them, come into their
own, I am tempted to worry and fear. I
cannot control, weather or not they buy snowmobiles, whom they date or don’t
date or how they run their professional lives.
What I can do is trust in the Our Lord.
I know there is power in prayer.
I trust that God, answers our prayers.
I trust that no matter how things seem, God has his hand on it, and is
working it out for our good. I have
heard, “The opposite of faith is fear.” If I find myself in fear I am
miserable, trying to be in control of things, I have no control over. When I truly practice my faith and trust all
things, including my boys, in God’s capable hands I feel deep joy and
reassurance. When I actively live in
God’s joy, I am happy. Deep felt
happiness and peace are necessary for true health and wellness. Jesus is the only way I know to achieve this
state.
Be fit and be blessed,
Kimberly
Romans 8:28
“And we know that God works for the good of those who love Him and are
called according to His purpose.”
1 Thessalonians 1:4-6
“4 For
we know, brothers and sisters [b] loved by
God, that he has chosen you, 5 because our gospel came to you not
simply with words but also with power, with the Holy Spirit and deep
conviction. You know how we lived among you for your sake. 6 You became imitators of
us and of the Lord, for you welcomed the message in the midst of severe
suffering with the joy given by the Holy Spirit.
