One A Day

Again, I'm starting something new.

In the past few months God has revealed to me a quite shocking revelation: I am deeply and seriously afraid of commitment. Throughout my life there have been few things that I have stuck with and seen through for more than a few months. I desperately want and need to break this bondage. I mean, really, I would like to get married some day but the thought of even DATING terrifies me right now! It was a completely unexpected and kind of unwelcomed revelation.

So in order to try and break this pattern, bondage, whatever you wish to call it, I am starting what I'm going to call my "One A Day" program! Each day of the month of December I am going to do healthy things to improve my body, mind, soul, and heart. All of those things we need to love the Lord (Luke 10:27).

Here are a few things I've thought of that I will do each day (I'm sure more will come along):

I will read one Proverb a day and meditate on it

I will take one multivitamin a day along with an Acai berry concentrate pill (for weightloss and general health), a does of magnesium with chelated zinc (this just helps with pretty much everything, I'll be taking it as a preventative for migraines, back pain, and PMS), and an allergy pill everyday (to just help with asthma and allergies...ha).

I will drink 8cups of water a day.

I will do something physical for at least 30 minutes everyday.

I will stretch once a day for my back and overall body health.

I will give thanks (at least) once a day to the LORD for all I have.

I will blog once a day.

Lastly, once a week I will practice my guitar.

So, today I'm starting all of this. So far I have taken my pills and supplements, here's my blog, and after this I am going sign up for a gym near my house. I've started my water consumption and will read Proverbs 1 today.

EEK! I'm really hoping this 31 day thing will help me grow closer to God and help me understand this lack of commitment thing I have. If you'd like to go along with me on this, I would love that! I strongly suggest the Proverbs challenge. There are 31 Proverbs and this month there are 31 days. One a day.

Let the fun begin!

I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me, and He does, so I can.
