Thoughts
Based on Chapter 5 of Made to Crave by Lysa TerKeurst
Thought for the Day: "We were made for more! More than this failure … more than this cycle … more than being ruled by our taste buds, body image, rationalizations, and guilt. We were made for victory. Sometimes we just have to find our way to that truth."
You were made for more too. God loves you and has a plan for you. Find that inner craving and act on it. Crave good, crave God. Crave to glorify Him in all you do.
To those who hurt - you are made for more.
Ephesians 1:18–19 says: “I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which [God] has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, and his incomparably great power for us who believe.”

Craving more Self-control??
Happy New Year!
I can't tell you how much I've learned from Lysa TerKeurst. She has a new book out that is called Made to Crave and it is an amazing new approach to the age old problem of weight loss.
Don't get me wrong this is not a "diet book." This is a new approach to the way you think about your body. Lysa will be blessing us with FREE webcasts on Monday night from 8:00 - 8:45 EST. So, if you're on-line stop by Lysa TerKeurst. I just can wait for this - it's really quite monumental!
I actually held off starting this book because I thought it would be a chore- but it's not. It addresses all our issues in a biblical way! Right from Eve's apple issue to my lack of personal self-control for food.
God has really blessed us with this study - I hope every one will at least give it a look....
Many blessing in the new year!!
You can sign up to receive more information at Lysa's blog or at the Made to Crave site. Give it a try and get involved!
The road to self-control starts here:)

Are You Wasting Your Money??
25 Things Grandma Never Paid For:
By Sally Herigstad
Our grandparents could live on very little money compared to what it takes to keep us going these days. We may not want to live without those modern conveniences and vacations Grandma wouldn't have even dreamed of. But once in a while we should at least remember what we're spending money on that Grandma seemed to be able to live without!
How many of these things did your grandparents never pay for?
1. Air conditioning - at home and in the car.
2. Plastic bags that zip up.
3. Movie rentals.
4. Cruises.
5. Cell phone service. If she wanted Grandpa to come in from the back yard, she had to actually step out back and wave at him. Or just wait.
6. Canned vegetables. That backyard garden was no trendy hobby. She used it to fill hundreds of glass jars with green beans, tomatoes, and other good food, ready for winter.
7. Gym memberships. By the time she got done working in the garden and tracking down Grandpa without a cell phone, she didn't need the gym.
8. Computers, laptops, upgrades, new mice, and other accessories. Certainly not.
9. Internet service. Ditto.
10. Cable. If it wasn't on TV, forget it. (Fiddling with rabbit ears - now that's a vanishing skill!)
11. Pedicures.
12. Eating out, except for special occasions like birthdays. Imagine Grandma saying, "I don't feel like cooking - let's eat out!"
13. Massages. She'd have looked askance at that.
14. Hair foils.
15. Housecleaning services.
16. Child care.
17. Life insurance on her children.
18. Having a tailor change a hem or sew on a button.
19. Feng shui consultations.
20. Catering.
21. A second car.
22. Frozen pizzas.
23. Delivered pizzas.
24. Dog grooming.
25. Health insurance for pets.
I thought this was so true and so funny! I am feeling consumed by expenses this month and this lightened my mood.
Think before you spend this month. Pray for self-discipline. Take control of your spending and the New Year will be much happier!
Blessings to all my bloggers..

Because...

Because someone needs to hear this today...you know who you are:)
Exodus 14:13-14, Moses answered the people, "Do not be afraid. Stand firm and you will see the deliverance the Lord will bring you today... The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still."
I love you, He loves you more and will deliver you.
To all who suffer, I claim this verse for you, my sweet friends.
Blessings to you!
