Lookin good

Everyone wants to look better.

I am not bad but there are things I try to improve to look and feel better.

I still have a gut from overeating and I get out of shape really quickly.

I know some of my health problems improve when I am in better shape.

A little while back Hailee and I got Wii Fit.

Since then I can measure how I am doing, whether I am losing weight or gaining it.

I can feel through the workouts if I feel better or if I know I have a long way to go.

I started out weighing 187 pounds.

I went down to 181 pounds and had a lot more muscle.

Usually I am somewhere in between.

I try to work out every night but sometimes lack the motivation.

I would like to get down to the 160's (According to my BMI) but would be happy in the 170's.

I want to look better on the inside and the outside.

God talks about how beautiful his people are in chapter 9 verse 17…

"How attractive and beautiful they will

Be!

Grain will make the young men

Thrive,

And new wine the young women.

This is talking about the people coming back to him after exile.

Often we are beat up and don't look our best.

Life can take a lot out of us, we don't feel good, we are sick or burnt out and look like it.

But we are still a gift of God.

He also says they will sparkle.

How often do we feel like that?

No matter where we are at, we are beautiful?

Sure we could all make improvements, I will always want to improve.

But we are beautiful just for the fact we are God's people.

Have a beautiful day.
