Queen of Everthing

Welcome to my blog,  I am a wife, mom, an educator  and a coach's wife. This blog is about my triumphs, struggles, and discoveries.  I hope I can share the things I'm passionate about with others who share the same interests. 



I have always been a fan of Mary Engelbreit, especially the Queen of Everything.  I have always joked that I wished I was her and that things always went my way and today I had a revelation, I AM her.  For the past 20 years, I have struggled with weight.  I have worked hard and lost 40 lbs since February.  I recently injured my back and haven't been able to exercise . I have been reading Made to Crave by Lysa TerKeurst.  Today I realized I don't have a weight problem, I have a sin problem.  When it comes to food, I am the Queen of Everything!  I want what I want, when I want it no matter the consequences.  I have put on some of the weight I have lost and believe me it  comes back a lot faster than it takes to lose it.  I am very frustrated with myself.  I have put my focus on myself and not my Savior.  I understand how Paul said he didn't understand why he did the things he didn't want to do.  That is me!!! I am glad tomorrow is a new day and I have a Savior who redeems me in all areas of my life.  One of my favorite verses is Ephesians 3:20, ²⁰ Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, ²¹ to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen
I am putting my focus back on Him, where I am weak He is strong!  I have worked to hard to let Satan win this one.  "LET THE GAMES BEGIN!"
