1). I love walking and have committed to doing it much more in the summer months now..I love nature we have wonderful places to go. I live in Oregon, in an area which is a Hop skip and a jump from Mt. Hood. Awesome stuff.
2). It turns out that despite it being my Birthday today, old dogs can learn new tricks: If I spin around clockwise for some reason, I have to spin around counter clock-wise right away so as to "unwind" myself. See God is finishing His work in me still.
3). A descriptive fact about me would also be that I breathed about 5 million times this last year. Hmmm....I hope that was figured out based on a math calculation, I can't stop being concerned for the poor guy whom I envision waking up a 5am to start counting for 365 straight days, while asking his wife to work the night shift counting him while he sleeps.
5). I have started a diet based on the Holy Spirit's stewardship program, which is simply listening to Him then doing it - no annual fees for that either!
. But the testimony comes from me starting out hating it, but now I still hate it but I agree with God that I need to hate it. See all things work for good for those who love the Lord. And as a fellowship moment with God He showed me that it takes more calories to eat a piece of celery than the celery has in it. Hey God loves a cheerful giver, that fun fact helped me.
6). Speaking of food and irony, I haven't eaten any apple butter this last year, despite my love of it. But the irony is the FDA reports show they permit up to 5 whole insects per 100 grams of apple butter. Thus, God has blessed me with starving me from apple butter this year.
7). Let's see I could tell you how I am really busy in my Church, yada yada but suffice it to say, Ive already mentioned all that stuff before so let me mention that I have been blessed by God with a broken heart toward Gods Children, and ironically also a broken clock, it turns out its right beyond its ability to do so 2 times a day everyday. God is so gracious.
8).God has blessed me by allowing me many heavy circumstances, and for those who know me even more of them than before, but God has blessed me thru
every single one of them for the last two years. God still has circumstances coming my way but I am ready to show God's glory now bring it on God, I don't plan on going anywhere without Him, and i plan on going everywhere, and
I know I can count on Him.
9). As if I needed to even say this: I have gained perseverance and Character these last two years, you know you love God when the descriptions of yourself become the testimony of your faithfulness to God, and vice versa.
10). Sure there are Spiritual warfare battles in life, but there are just simply things that delight too. I am a Joy orienteer, meaning I love to see Gods loving hand in simple things. One such notice lately is this: 111,111,111 x 111,111,111 = 12,345,678,987,654,321. Thank God for simple gains, by simple truths..
