Remember that my "word of the year" for 2011 is CULTIVATE (read more about my cultivation in the January posts)...and man am I putting the word through the ringer!!! I have NEVER been so disciplined in so many areas of my life..especially all at once..BUT, I am taking time for each area separately. I can not cultivate them all at once or I would definitely become a bigger "Whirling Dervish" than I already "was". Key word..WAS.
so with that said, I am working on my "SHAPE"...both physically and spiritually and they are both tough areas to conquer. Basically, they will never be conquered..a definite work in progress...but key word is PROGRESS...and that I am making, whew!
As of yesterday, I have been COMPLETELY gluten free for FIVE WEEKS! whoot whoot..I am pretty much eatin' like Jesus did. (except for the AWESOME Gluten Free Tortilla Chips that I am sure HE did not have) Now, let me admit, changing my diet was not a big change for me because I do not eat any dairy or red meat..but let's just say there was ALOT of BREAD & BUTTER, chips and crackers in my pantry..and on my hips! okay, enough about that, if you have any questions, just email me.
Back to SHAPE...on the spiritual side of things..and PLEASE do not let this part frustrate you or make you want to click over to another blog..because like I have always said..IT IS NOT ABOUT RELIGION, duh...you can apply what I am saying to everyday life....
Shape stands for Spiritual gifts....Heart.....Abilities...Personality...Experience
and it is what you do with your shape that not only matters...but makes a huge difference in your life and the life of others!
Heart = interests, passions & desires
"As a face is reflected in water, so the HEART reflects the person" Prov. 27:19
