Resolves not Resolutions

Clearly some resolves had to me made within me to change this doomed path. Resolves are decisions. They are not resolutions.  Resolves are what we DETERMINE to do.  I resolved that I was coming off of medications---ALL OF THEM.  I resolved that I was not going to be sick.  I was too beautiful, had too much purpose and much more life to live!  I resolved that I was going to live that life and fulfill my purpose and I was going to be healthy and happy doing it.  I resolved that I had been honoring God with caring for and allowing Him to rule my spirit. For many years, with His help and guidance, I’d been doing quite a bit of work on my soul (mind, will and emotions) and now it was time to give Him my body---entirely! And finally, I resolved that I would continue to be a work in progress.  I would continue to learn about caring for my temple that I might honor God and help others.  I was up for the challenge.

The short version of that story is that I lost some weight. I felt better. I looked better. My doctor took me off all blood pressure medications with the exception of one that she decreased down to the least amount possible.  Now that was three years ago. It’s time to go to the next dimension.  So I am ready and up for the challenge:  10 lbs in two weeks.  Let’s get ‘er done!
