journey!


                                                     Holly and Becky Long Island 2010

Years (yes it has been years) Holly and i started an amazing journey together. We were in search for a happiness that comes from a healthy lifestyle. We were not looking to become skinny but a happy healthy.

Yesterday i reached a level of happiness over our healthy lifestyle I had never imagined.

It all started 6 months ago when i shared the story at church of God repeatedly calling me to become healthy and how good it felt to follow that calling after years of ignoring him. i explained the joys i had received from being obedient. I was not sure anyone was listening or if they cared. Really i was wondering if they even believed that God had called me to make a change. about two weeks later the leader of the bible study came to me SHE had been listening and she wanted to make a change.I invited her to come workout with me. It took a while but yesterday she did!  God used me! me!!! little old me- to make a change- to share my story- to encourage another-all in His name! Here is her blog that had me in tears (I have been where she was yesterday morning and God gave me Holly!)

With old friends and new friends and friends I have yet to meet!
