Hi everyone, haven't posted here but i read this thread a lot. I am a Christian and have also changed my lifestyle recently to lose weight & be more active. Today I was struggling with not food but friends. Ex-friends to be specific. I got married & lost 2 friends because they were not invited. the fact that no one was invited was lost on them. so 6 months later i am trying to give one of my ex-friends back an important book & she will not communicate with me. It is so frustrating trying to be an adult when they won't. But then I remembered the lyrics to this song.
Brandon Heath - "I'm Not Who I Was". Such a great song about letting go of pain and hurt. Because I really am not who I was, thanks to Christ. And I have changed so much as my relationship with Christ grows. I am somewhat sad for the loss but I now realize that this is probably for the best. No more drama and I can find real-Christian girlfriends. So God has turned my worry into worship in about 10 minutes. I am so thankful for His presence in my life. Also, 21 pounds gone forever! Woot !!
Here is to the next 19 taking a hike too!
