Week 6

Your Finances - Control your money. Don't let it control you. Make a plan for every dollar that you have, then follow that plan. Make whatever adjustments you need to and keep your priorities straight. Don't bet caught up in trying to impress the 'Jones'. You don't really know their situation. Be true to yourself and your responsibilities. Pray for wisdom. God wants to give it to you. James 1:5 If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. 6 But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind.

Your Body - Find simple ways to incorporate exercise into your life. Follow some simple suggestions that you already know: Take the stairs when possible instead of the elevator or escalator; leave the telephone in the other room and walk to answer it; park farther from the building than you want so you can walk more steps. Think of ways that you can move your body more. This is an area that requires conscious 'choices' for me because I don't like to move around much. Because I know my body needs exercise I parked near the end of the parking lot the other day so I could walk more steps. It wasn't so bad. Sometimes I forget to take the cordless phone with me to another room so then I must move to answer it when it rings. Pray for me in this area. It's hard for me but I must make the right choices.

Your Spirit - Don't forget to read today's Verse of the Day in the upper right hand corner of this page.
