For Women Only: An Ordinary Woman's Diet, Fitness, Weight and Beauty Log and Diary

I want to glorify Christ in my body, and I am learning how to do that. My name means "womanly," but what does that mean? When I became a new wife and Christian, I went on a mission to understand Biblical womanhood, focusing on her from the inside. In more recent years, as my body succumbed to the pull of glutony, gravity and aging, I am focusing as well on my physical appearance. I am learning how God would have me live as a beautiful woman (and aren't we all?) in this world for His glory.

Having Fun

155 today, but it feels on the down trend.

Hope to walk and bike this afternoon.

Looking forward to healthy eating and going out to dinner with my husband later.

Glad my clothes are fitting better.

You don't know how good it feels to discover that you have a woman's body at 43 years of age. It is like you had a package but never knew how to open the box. It is a gift to be a woman, made and designed by God Almighty. It is NOT second place. It used to feel that way. Then my God changed my mind, transformed my mind with truth and reality.

I feel like the man who wrote the Maker's Diet, in that he feels like he is on a mission to help people be healthy. I feel like I have discovered something that hardly anybody knows, WHAT A WOMAN IS but hardly anybody cares either. Kind of like he must have felt. Like, he thinks people should cut down on their use of plastic and deodorant and the world (including me, goes, "hugh?"), but should he just not share the conclusions that he has some too, just because they are...peculiar?

About Me

Name: An Ordinary Christian

Location: Los Angeles,, California, United States

I am an "ordinary Christian". In this world I may be, as all of God's children, extraordinary (Gen 1:27). In Christ I can do extraordinary things (Phil 4:13). But I like to identify myself as an ordinary Christian because I want to serve Christ according to the pleasure of His will, as His bondservant, as a slave, one owned by her Master. As such, every extraordinary thing I may do in Christ is standard fare, expected and a reasonable service of worship. With my view of Christ on my cross, I do not evaluate my service according to my own judgment. I do not choose to think of myself more highly than I ought, but rather I want to think of myself with sober judgment (Rom 12:3). Anything good I do is by the grace of Christ given me. I have no ability to measure what I do or don't do. I desire for my eye to be single and good. This is why I am an ordinary Christian. After all, Paul called himself "chief of sinners." Is it anything unreasonable to be known as an ordinary Christian?
