mvm on a tuesday : )

 so...it's been rough couple of weeks. some girls at work and i wanted to a weight loss challenge over a 4-5 week period...sounds good, right...no, not for me. i feel as though i get more stressed out during these challenges and don't do as good as could without it do to the stress to lose.  i am determined to lose a good bit of weight before Christmas though. i know i can do it....and with my wonderful workout partner and discipline, it WILL happen!

here is our memory verse monday:

"For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord" 

:: Romans 8:38-39 :: 

i have to continually remind myself...God has a plan and it will ALL work out in His precious timing when i put my faith and trust in Him.  as i continue to strive to be more disciplined not only in working out, but in many aspects of my life, such as, reading the Word {daily}, spending time with Him, working on my Scentsy, and being consistent with my schedule.  if you remember reading this....throw a few thoughts and prayers up to Him for me please. thanks! : )  

love, blessings, & prayers....

memory verse monday

alright,  getting back on track here....

"Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interest of others." ::Philippians 2:4::

I hope you all are enjoying this as much as I am.  I am refreshed with the verses daily and how much the Lord knows what to supply us through others. I thank Him so much for His closes to my heart and knowing my needs.


We had a wonderful time visiting Matt's parents this weekend!! It was sooo relaxing, and I loved it! :) Sunday's sermon was so good and again, refreshing.  If you would like to listen to it {which I recommend}, here is the link to Kerry's sermon. If you feel like you are in the belly of the whale or have recently been in the belly of the whale or want to prepare for when you will be in the belly of the whale, LISTEN! 

Have a great and blessed week all!

love, prayers, and blessings,

memory verse monday!

so I know I am a couple of days late, but here is the memory verse for this week:

"Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will a harvest if we do not give up."
:: Galatians 6:9 ::

I learned so many new things, got a lot of motivation and cannot wait until the new fall/winter catalogs comes out Sept 1st to share with everyone! scentsy has some great new products out!
