Just How committed are you????
We’ve ALL said a time or too, I’m in it 100%, or I’m dedicating ALL my extra time to this or that.. But, when the time came for your commitment, to take place; you gave 100% the first couple days; and then you started slacking off: not fully knowing it but you did. But, eventually it will be brought to your attention and more than likely you will say “Did I?” Or “I thought I did good.”
You have to do ALL you can to stay dedicated to the things in which you involve yourself in. Sometimes you may feel like you want to give up, but GOD says: “Weeping may endure for a night, but JOY comes in the morning” Psalms 30:5
Self-Reflection:
In January, I like most people decided that I wanted to tone up and lose a few pounds and get that great shape that I ALWAYS wanted. Well, what did I do??? I signed up for a gym membership and Yes, at this point I was winning! I was going 2-3 times a week, and feeling really good about my workouts. Didn’t see any results for myself instantly, but everyone around me did and started saying: “You getting too little don’t lose anymore weight” or “You looking good girlfriend, keep up the good work”. That would make anyone feel good, right??? Wrong!! I began to slack and slack and slack even the more.. my commitment started dropping to maybe 1 day a week to now NONE! I feel bad, because when I signed up my trainer asked me “How committed are you?” My response “1000%, I’m ready”… well, that didn’t work correctly. I said all of this to say.. Now matter what you involve yourself in just make sure it’s for the right reasons. You can’t stay committed to something that doesn’t interest you, or your not motivated by. But, I will tell you this I’m picking back up my days at the gym. I’m more committed than I have been, seeing the results that I like and plus I’m paying for the membership (can’t let it go to waste) 😂
Psalms 37:5 – “Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.”
All you have to do is speak it, pray about it and watch GOD move on your behalf. You have to commit to doing what you are praying about, you can slack off because you don’t see it happening for you. Be patient and wait for it to come about from GOD. You have to Pray without ceasing!
With being committed, you have to be down for whatever it takes to succeed! You can’t give up when things get rough L or look like nothing is going right. You have to stick in it win it!
Ask yourself.. what am I committed too?? Are you committed to being a dreamer or a doer?
A Dreamer: someone who can dream ALL day long; but they NEVER get out of the dream mode…well you simply remain a dreamer. This type is committed to hoping, wishing or I could, should or would but…
A Doer: A doer is someone that has goals, plans, and ideas in mind that they want to achieve. Committed to succeed and become better, they put things into action and no matter how much they fall… get back up and keep trying! Don’t stop until it’s done.
We have to know that I can do all things through him who strengthens me. ~ Philippians 4:13
Don’t give up on GOD, because he won’t give up on you…he’s able! I TRUST that GOD will help you stay committed to the right things that is meaningful to your life. But, you gotta walk by faith and not by sight. It’s possible, if you believe!
Stay committed to GOD, and he will stay committed to you!
Love ya’ll

This blessed my soul! You know I’ve been on the weight loss journey and the last few months I have really slipped off. I need to refocus and get back committed to realign my goal! ❤️
