Newark, OH(Zone 5b)

Did you survive the Whitman's Samplers and heart-shaped boxes of lucious goo? LOL! We stayed the course today, thank God! I brought Subway veggie delight sandwiches to Howie's work so we could eat Valentine's dinner together, such as it was. Not very romantic, but it was nice to see him, anyway.

Today's Devotional:

II Corinthians 12:9 - http://bible.whitinger.net/showverse.php3?vid=29032

The little boy tagged farther and farther behind his parents. As his father turned to tell him to hurry up, the little boy sobbed, "I can't hurry. I'm too tired. Carry me." He stopped where he was and lifted his weary little arms.

During our diets, we often feel just like that little boy. We just can't go on anymore. We just don't have the strength! That's when we need to turn to God. In our weakness, He brings us strength. You will be amazed at what great endurance the Lord gives to those who stretch out their arms to Him.

Today's Thought: The Lord lifts us up from temptation when we reach out to Him.
