The one where I tell you the plan...

where I share what I believe he is calling me to do.

Blue skies and wispy white clouds. Oh how I long for a day just like this.

Instead, the skies are grey and my stomach is in knots. BIG KNOTS.

While at the Allume conference I finally discerned the direction I believe the Lord wants me take with this space. And to follow his direction will require me to be more open with my story.

Thus the KNOTS.

So I swallow hard.

Take a deep breath and start writing…

For sometime I have felt the Lord wants me to share more of my weight loss journey in this space. A couple of months ago, I put a couple of quiet feelers out. I mentioned it to a couple of people and got no response. So I resisted moving forward.

I have ignored his call. And his direction. I thought if I ignored it long enough, it (the call) would go away.

But it has not…it hangs around like a fly buzzing around that I can’t seem to hit with the fly swatter!

In Matthew 7 we read…

Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find;

knock and the door will be opened to you.

For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds;

and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.

In September, after spending some serious time in prayer ASKing what I should do with this space. I was desperately SEEKing his guidance. When I got to the door, I didn’t want to KNOCK.

While at Allume, I KNOCKed. And HE opened it. And I can’t seem to close it. As badly as I want to, it will not budge.

Beginning this Wednesday, November 7, I will share about my weight loss journey. I do not have all the answers to how to lose weight, keep it off and enjoy life in the process. But I can share what worked for me. And what I hope will benefit others. Then, most Wednesdays, at least twice a month, I will share part of the story.

In the meantime, I would love to hear your thoughts on me taking this path. I am scared to death. You see…telling this part of my story will lead to telling other parts.

And I am not sure I want to go there.

See you on Wednesday…
