Diet? What's that?

OK! So I have not gotten to blog for awhile! But that doesn't mean that I have forgotten that Kirby and I are supposed to be dieting! But we are like most other people in the world and the cares of this old world just seem to overcome us all sometimes...
I am NOT happy about it though! But as the old saying goes, when you fall off a horse, you just climb right back on top of it and R-I-D-E! That is exactly what we are doing! Actually, we have been extremely busy lately and it seems that I hardly get a chance to sit down to my computer lately to share our experiences on this diet journey that we are on! Our lifestyle is slowly beginning to change for the better. We have made some drastic changes in the foods that we eat and how much we eat of it! Seeing this take place encourages me because I know that these are life time changes that will lead to better health for the both of us.

Last week was the first anniversary of our church! We celebrated by having a Homecoming! We had Dinner in the fellowship hall and afterwards a singing group from the middle Georgia area called South Georgia Quartet blessed us with songs of praise. We were so blessed to have this wonderful group of such great talent (who are filled with the love of Jesus Christ) to come to NLHC! They gave up an engagement in Atlanta to come be with us instead! I pray for God to bless them greatly for that! Kirby and I can not believe that one whole year has come and gone already! Time certainly does fly when you are having fun! What blessings we have had this past year! My husband met with his staff and General Assembly and discussed the achievements that our congregation has made in fulfilling the God given vision of New Light Harvest Chapel. What we found is that in spite of ourselves, God is building His church! Praise the Lord! And the people have remained faithful! It has just been amazing to see everyone coming together in faith and love and serving one another as well as the community! New Light Harvest IS a family of God!
Pastor Kirby and I are truly blessed to have been called to serve such a wonderful family of God!
