New Beginnings - Well, how was Monday? Monday is generally an easier day for me than the rest of them. Monday is the first day of the week for me as I weigh in on that day. I generally have lots of motivation and stamina on Monday. I am more able to resist the temptations that often trip me up as the week progresses.
The first day of the week is very important though because it sets the tone for the rest of the week. For some reason I always want to begin at the beginning, wipe the slate clean and start over on Monday. So, therefore if I am successful at following my menu plan on Monday I stand a better chance of doing the same on Tuesday.
What works for you? God tells us that everyday is a do-over day in His eyes, every minute is an opportunity to begin again. This week, if I have a period of weakness and I give in to temptation I will not wait until Monday to start again, I will make the adjustments to my mindset immediately and start over right then and there.
Scripture encouragement for today is from 2 Corinthians 12:7-9 " To keep me from becoming conceited because of these surpassingly great revelations, there was given me a thorn in my flesh, a messenger of Satan, to torment me. Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness."
Grace 'n Grins,
Judy
