211.8-baby- mom-speech

Baby came today and he is his usualy rambunctious self, a bundle of energy and warm hugs and kisses.

We went to moms house for about 30 minutes. she is failing so fast.

I have kept up with my calories so far for today BUT everyone hear that big big but, a very slight play on words there,

I have been invited to give a devotional at a church that is not my home church. It is a great honor for me to be asked to give a devotional because they have not heard me give a devotional or speech before. They have only heard a small portion of my testimony and from that I was asked to come. Tonight is the night.

I am not a professional speaker and I am already getting nervous and have swarms of butterflys in my stomach.What do I do? you ask- I answer. I eat of course!!!!!

So at this time I am still within an acceptable range of calories -howeverat the meeting tonight will be piles of food. fried chicken. peach cobbler, home made biscuits, potatoe salad, mac and cheese, etc. Church going people do cook good and they cook a lot. There is no way to get out of it. People say I made this you have to try it. Just a small amount, surely a little will be all right.

I know me and I know that I go with the best intentions but I always fail. Tonight I go with the idea that yes i will eat too much high calories foods. But tomorrow I can do an extra 30 or 40 mionutes of exercise and then cut back on my eating for the next few days and maybe I can undo some of the damge I will do tonight.

It will be a planned splurge, with a plan to undo some of the splurge.

Praise the lord for this oppportunity to lift His name in love and adoration,.

I hope that my story moves the spirits of Gods people and blessses them in some way.
