Here we go 'round....

Here we go again!  Progress report:  I have been doing Zumba once a week and that is about it!


I started this blog as motivation to keep my focused on my goal, and in the beginning I was doing well.  This weakness is difficult, I struggle, stumble, ignore, and avoid.  I have allowed fear to keep my stagnant. I have found that this past year, in moments where I feel like and am overcoming obstacles, I freeze.  I freeze for what may be, what my future is, or if there is a future.   I fear that my life or time is short, yet I know that I am going to be around for awhile.  This fear has caused me to become stagnant, still, and unmoving.

Yet, there is a merciful Lord who is continually prompting me, reminding me to move forward, to get on with life.  He is urging me to accomplish my goal. And I am wanting to try.  

October, for the past 7 years, has never been a very good month for me.  I have usually had something happen:  miscarriage, appendectomy, cyst, anxiety, cystectomy, biopsy, etc.   Each one has brought a challenge, and a blessing.   Each one has been a learning experience, fortifying my faith, strengthening my testimony.  It hasn't be easy, but the rewards outweigh the pain, sorrow, and struggle that I have faced.   This October,  I need to readjust, reevaluate, and restart my goal.   I need to overcome my weak body, and become strong.

I have faith.  I have hope.  I am scared, but I am striving to push that aside, and to trust.  Someday, reader, you will read of my success.  Hopefully, I can be an example of someone who trusts in the Lord. That is what I am striving to do.  Thanks for hanging in there with me!   Here we go 'round again!
