you talking to me?

Wow! What another amazing night at WSBC! Things picked up where they left off yesterday. God just continued to speak to me through Bro. Bob. Tonight when he started his message I'm pretty sure my mouth fell open and tears immediately started to form. It was as though he was speaking directly to me. The message was amazing and continued to build upon what I feel God is trying to reveal to me! I have chill bumps just typing it! I'm so excited about it! Tonight Bro. Bob preached from Psalm 23 and discussed going through valleys. 'Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff they comfort me.' (Psalm 23:4)
A few things about valleys:
*Everyone goes through valleys in life.
*You are never alone in the valleys of life, God is with you.
*Its in the valley that God tests you, teaches you lessons and teaches you to trust Him.
*Valleys eventually come to an end.
So, after you've walked through your valley, you reach a mountain. You stand on that mountain top and you GLORIFY GOD! You help others, going through that valley that you've been through! You help them...you encourage them...you remind them that they are not alone! God is with them! God works through you!
I am on my mountain top! I want to shout from the mountain top how absolutely amazing God is! That he got me through my valley and he'll get you through yours! You are not alone! He's right there protecting you...herding you in the right direction...you just have to follow his lead! He is your shepherd! Trust him!
By no means am I saying I'm done with valleys. I'm guaranteed valleys. But when I come down this mountain and head into my next valley, all I have to do is put my faith in God and he will guide me safely to the next mountain!
WOW! I can't wait to see what tomorrow night brings! This is good stuff!

**Not only am I making great strides spiritually this week, but my workouts are coming along nicely and I have not faultered once on my diet. I did 20 minutes on the spin bike this morning and worked my back, upper traps and biceps tonight. I'll hit bootcamp at 5:15 in the morning, but I'm debating on weighing tomorrow or Wednesday. Regardless, when I do weigh, I'll be sure to let you guys know how I'm progressing. Thanks for taking an interest in my life. I hope it makes a difference to you. Good Night.
