Now I am wondering what that got me. It got me nothing, it labeled me slothful and I ate and ate and ate! Now I've decided to make a move again and DO something besides be slothful and eat! I haven't had a diet soda for 3 days! My birthday is Sunday so I am not going to stop eating until Monday!!!! This month has been a bust for the new start on eating...or anything for that matter. I guess what the moral of the blog today is don't gloat, or brag about achieving anything...especially if you think you did it yourself, as soon as you do... it's over you have set yourself up for failure and that dark smoke to smother you and send you into a slothful stupor!
Alma 26: 12 Yea, I know that I am nothing; as to my strength I am weak; therefore I will not boast of myself, but I will boast of my God, for in his strength I can do all things; yea, behold, many mighty miracles we have wrought in this land, for which we will praise his name forever
36 Now if this is boasting, even so will I boast; for this is my life and my light, my joy and my salvation, and my redemption from everlasting wo. Yea, blessed is the name of my God, who has been mindful of this people, who are a branch of the tree of Israel, and has been lost from its body in a strange land; yea, I say, blessed be the name of my God, who has been mindful of us, wanderers in a strange land.
Alma 38:10 And now, as ye have begun to teach the word even so I would that ye should continue to teach; and I would that ye would be diligent and temperate in all things.
11See that ye are not lifted up unto pride; yea, see that ye do not boast in your own wisdom, nor of your much strength.
