I Want It

Have anyone of you heard of the Narrated Bible? This seems like a very tightly kept secret. Bob Preston was in Rushville last Sunday and when he heard that some of us are attempting to read the Bible cover-to-cover in 90 days, he recommended that we continue trying b/c what we are doing is a good thing. BUT, he also told us about the Narrated Bible and that with this Bible, he has read the Bible cover-to-cover every year and goes through the NT 2-3 times every year.

What's so secret about the Bible?

Well, let me tell you. This Bible is in Chronological order. That means that the Psalms are tucked away throughout the Bible and appear in the place where they were actually written. For example, when David was running from Saul and he hid in the cave - he wrote a psalm in that cave, so in the midst of reading about David running from Saul, you see the psalm. How cool is that?

Bob recommended that we buy these as gifts for Christmas, but I don't think I can wait that long. I've done pretty good about not buying one this week, but Jason and I will have one of those Bible before the weekend is up. I already checked the Family Bookstore and they don't carry them. I haven't checked Lambs. I'll probably order ours online at Amazon or E-bay. I think it was about $27 at Amazon. So - that's about it for today.

How was this for an advertisment? I think this is the coolest thing I've ever heard of!

Bible in 90 Days

90-Day Bible Reading Schedule

Follow the link above and join me and several from our church and many more across central Indiana in reading the Bible cover-to-cover in 90 days. While on the Fat Smash Diet, I have been thinking that I spend so much time thinking of food and that I wished I could also spend that much time digesting my spiritual food. So, when I heard that WGNR has called their listeners to do this, I decided this is perfect.

Now, I'm on two diets at once. One for my spirit and one for my body. :) May we lose the fat in our spirit and press on to the mark of the high calling together. May we run the physical race and not forget about the Spiritual.

I Did It!

I started the "Fat Smash Diet" as seen on the Tyra Banks Show or some show on VH1. Anywho, I started this diet last Monday. I had been putting it off, because I didn't have time to work out the grocery list and I knew that I had to be prepared with meals and snacks or else it wouldn't work. The diet focuses on eating a lot of fruits and veggies along with oatmeal and whole grains/brown rice.

I made Monday my weigh in day. I forgot to weigh myself Monday, so I did it Tuesday. I'm five pounds lighter already! It's hard to believe, because I didn't expect to lose anything so quickly.

Another part of the diet is exercise. My life is busy, but not active. I sit in the car for at least two hours daily and sit at a desk for 8 hours DAILY! I don't have time for exercise. So, I've made some of the things that I have to do daily are my exercise. 1: I work on the 6th floor of a building on Monument Circle. I started taking the stairs and I love it! 2: Yesterday, I was forced to park on the roof of my parking garage. This isn't the same one I started out with...the roof of this garage is as tall as the State Capitol Building minus the dome at the top. So, I parked on the 11th floor. When I got off work, I was thinking there is no way that I am climbing the stairs to the 11th floor. Well, I did it and I didn't even run out of breath. God and I had a good talk and He can help us to do all things.

God is so GOOD!
