Getting Aclimated

 

 

 

Psalm 141:2

"Let my prayer be set forth before thee as incense; and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice."



 



Minor setback.  Beside the fact that I was incredibly hungry yesterday for some reason, I decided to catch a few rays and sun sensitivity from my blood pressure meds made me sick.  I ended up with a thumping headache and my bottom blood pressure number was extremely high and the top one was low, not good.  I Googled my meds and low and behold sun sensitivity is a side effect.  It seems like every time I get a good start something sets me back.  Just need to keep going.  The really not great part of the sun sensitivity issue is that with my vitamin D deficiency I need to get some sun.

I confess, I ate several cookies yesterday.  I feel somewhat guilty, although to think that I will never eat sweets again is not realistic.  Carbs definitely are comfort food for me.  I really don't want to build that need into Logan's psyche, you're sad. . . eat a cookie-- life is hard. . . here's some ice cream.  The battle truly is in the mind to an extent.  My aches and pains certainly contribute to the war, but thinking in healthy terms and putting the important things first is key.  Prayer. . . when all you can see is a huge pile of what needs to be done and the most simple things seem impossible.  Stop, drop and pray.

Lord, In Jesus' name, please help me to commit myself to prayer in every situation.  You know me, and You know how hard-headed I am, please direct my paths.  Please cover me and help me to overcome these health issues.  Lord, my goal is to not need the blood pressure meds, please help me to have a positive attitude and do the things that I need to become healthier.  Thank You and I love You.  Amen.
