Stop burning bridges and drive off of them...

For the first time in a long time everything in my life seems to be clicking. Work is going really good. I feel very organized, and I feel that I'm planning ahead for events and everything seems to be falling into place. Over the last 6 weeks I've lost 15 lbs. and am exercising daily and feel great. I've been eating better, cut down on soda, and don't eat late anymore. My weight has always been something I've battled with, but up until now I've never really been committed to losing any of it. A new job possibility looms as I begin to apply to different schools for another RD position. This really excites me because I really don't know where I'll end up. I've started a Bible study with guys in the dorm, and it appears that there might be as many as 12 guys coming every week, which is double what I had coming last year.
Upon thinking about this today I realize that with my life as wonderful as it is I'd never even thought about giving thanks to God. He has blessed me with so much, and I never even gave it a thought. It's amazing how when things are going good we put God on the backburner and take credit for everything, but as soon as the trials of life hit we call out to Him or pass the blame upon Him. We should thank Him and praise him in good times and bad because He is worthy of that. I'm reminded of the apostle Paul who was so consistent in praising Him whether he was in jail, traveling, or visiting with people. Just something to think about...
