Welcome Back!

Hey! I got your voicemail last night - excellent job on having such a great day!! My day was great, too. I did a really good workout in the morning and ate well throughout the day. I did have pizza for dinner, but only had a few slices and it was veggie (spinach, onion, olive) so that's better than meat. How have you been feeling emotionally?? Have you been feeling better or not as hard on yourself if you don't have a 'perfect' day?? I'm finding that I am - not totally there yet but am getting there. I weighed myself today and I've gained about a pound and a half. Very frustrating and crazy because I really do feel better and feel that my legs are getting more toned. Just have to remember to stick to it...I'm doing this to be healthier and weight shouldn't matter :) OK - here's the devotional today...have you gotten your book yet, by the way??

"Of course, fortune has its part in human affairs, but conduct is really much more important." - Jeanne Detourbey

It's not infrequent that we are faced with a dilemma; what is the best action to take in a certain situation? We can be guided, rightly, in every situation if we but turn inward and let our conscience direct our behavior. We have often heard it said at meetings that when we long for a message from God we will hear it, either through our conscience or in the words of our friends. Thus we can never really be in doubt; our conduct can always be above reproach if we but listen.

Right behavior leads to fortunate opportunities for those who look for them. Behavior that we're proud of seems to attract blessings in our lives. One's good fortune is really God-given and in proportion to one's willingness to act well toward others in all situations.

Simply, what goes around, comes around. Our behavior comes back to us, manyfold. In our encounters with others today, we'll have numerous occasions to decide about the best behavior for the particular circumstance. We must not forget that our behavior elicits the responses we receive.

I will invite blessings today. I will also shower blessings on my friends.
