Always so behind . . .

So, I knew blogging everyday would be tough.  Life has been busy so I'm lagging behind. 

March is proving to be an excellent month.  Started the month off right by attending Winter Jam 2012 in Nashville, TN with two of my dearest friends.  It was a great reunion and time of fun and laughter.  I also celebrated my birthday this month; the big 33!  Wew, where does the time go.  Just yesterday I was 25.  But, life is good.  Life is great.  And, Since Valentine's Day I have lost 20 pounds!!  WEW!!

The last post was on Day 6 of Focus 40 . . .  we're now up to Day 29!  I'll be honest I haven't been as committed to my praying as intended.  It's a work in progress.  Not only is it hard to blog everyday, it's equally tough or tougher to pray focused prayers daily. 

To bring you up to speed . . 
Day 7: Pray for the people in your life who need a relationship with him.
Day 8: Pray that you will let go of what is holding you back from really experiencing God's love.

Day 27: Thank God for the work he has done in  your life and others. Know that he continues to work all the time! (MY HOUSE CLOSED TODAY)
Day 28: Pray that you will be able to continue to lose your life for Christ and be witness to others.
Day 29: As you pray, remember that you are praying in the power of the blood of Jesus that overcomes all things. 

So, in all these things pray.  Pray for me as I do my part to work on being committed to this prayer time. 

Until next time . . .
