Reminder from God

Note: Start at "The Why"

What Happened:
 I woke up early this morning with a song on my heart and in my head that says:

"I'm trading my sorrow, I'm trading my shame and I'm laying it down for the joy of the Lord
I'm trading sickness, I'm trading my pain, I'm laying it down for the Joy of the Lord!
Yes Lord, yes Lord, Yes Yes Lord, Amen.

I'm pressed but not crushed, persecute and not abandon, strapped down but not destroyed. And I'm blessed beyond the curse for  His promise will endure that his joy is going to be my strength. Sorrow may last for a night BUT JOY comes in the morning."

I can do nothing but cry and praise. My body is in pain but He gave me a song to get me through the day. Today is a long day at work but I am ready. I love when He gives me something that reminds me that He is here, He sees me, He hears me, He will heal my body! I stand firm on His promise! I am ready!

How I feel:
Motivated, Happy, I can do this because I know He is here

Bang Dem Sticks

Note: Start at "The Why" What Happened: I teach a class called Pound. It is amazing class with drumsticks that you bang together and lots of movement up and down, on the ground, back and forth. It is an amazing full body workout that I absolutely love. Today's class was horrible! Absolutely horrible! I went to hit my sticks together and my pointer finger radiated with pain. I dropped my sticks (which very rarely happens to me). I kept teaching but let go of my left stick. When we got down to the ground my hip area hurt so bad that I could barely sit, much less move side to side. I was in so much pain throughout the class. I managed to smile through the class but I just wanted to cry. But there are people to help get fit and no time or crying. My fingers also feel like I have blisters on them when I text or use them to type. And without texting you cant post to FB, IG, or talk to friends. I do all of the above a lot. Today was a very quiet day. How I felt: Scared. Wi...

OMG! OMG! OMG! 5-1

Note: Start at "The Why" What Happened: Today was an ok day. I worked all day chasing after clients. I taught one fitness class that uses equipment that I have to grip and hit. The pain usually comes when I hit the equipment together so I have learned to hold my left pointer finger up instead of allowing it to grip with the others. The pain is a radiating vibrating pain that goes down my finger. It is excruciating, but I have learned to adapt. In this class we also sit on the ground which is becoming harder and harder. I now have severe pain in my hips and back when sitting down. But I made it through the day! The class! and now its time for another class that requires more equipment, heavy equipment like big tractor tires and  such. Well I loaded all 4 tires, plus heavy weighted bars and various other equipment. Got to the location feeling ok so I moved the 30 plus chairs and 8 tables that needed to be moved. Luckily my friend, my right hand woman in class showed up and h...

The Longest Night

Note: Start reading at "The Why" What Happened: Two days ago I quit taking my Neurontin cold turkey. I did not know that you were suppose to wen yourself off gradually........I went from taking 1500mg to nothing. Help me Holy Spirit, Sweet baby Jesus! I need the father, the son and the Holy Ghost!!! All three right now! I am sweating like I  have been working out, my head hurt soooo bad and I cant stop trembling. This post wont be long because my vision is a little blurry but I wanted to write to explain the way I feel right now. It is 3 am and I have been up since 11 pm trying to not throw up or call my mom crying. I googled reactions to coming off of  Neurontin and I match most of them. Oh dear LAWD!!!! If this is what it feels like to be on drugs and come off....Never get on them but if you do just stay on them (yes this feeling is that bad). Every time I close my eyes there are images of Daffy Duck, Elmer Fudd and other characters from Looney Tunes but only half of th...
