Less of Me...More of Him

I was so excited yesterday when we weighed in for The Biggest Loser at church. I finally passed the ten pound mark with 10.4 pounds lost! This makes a total of 30 pounds since I first started losing weight...(including one major setback called "Vacation"). So my goal of losing 50 pounds is finally coming closer and closer! At that point, I will be able to fit back into all my skinny clothes! Yippee!

My husband keeps remarking that if I continue, then there won't be any of me left. Ha ha. So far from the truth. But actually that thought got me thinking.

Less of me. Isn't that how it should be anyway?

My life should consist of less and less of me....and more and more of God. That's been my heart's cry for the past several weeks as God has been doing a work inside my heart. It's so easy to get consumed in me...my life, my plans, my family, my work. Instead of focusing on me, I need to keep my eyes on my Maker and Creator!

Less of me...and MORE of God!
