Be the Person Your Family Thinks You Are

I am a huge fan of The Biggest Loser. During last night's episode, Sione spoke about one of the biggest motivators that got his head right...it was when Jillian told him to be the man his family thinks he is.

I have spent a lot of time in the last day thinking about that statement and it reminds me of what Tony has said to me...time after time...He always tells me he wishes I could see myself as everyone else does...see myself through his eyes.

I guess if I had to be the person that Tony thinks I am, that person would be strong, confident, able...my kids think I can do anything....so how I can develop these same beliefs in myself? I have to admit, I think I've been looking to myself to develop these beliefs, rather than looking to God. The first item on the The True Campaign - True Pact is to "Believe what God says about who I am - body, mind, heart and spirit".

"Summing it all up, friends, I’d say you’ll do best by filling your minds and meditating on things true, noble, reputable, authentic, compelling, gracious—the best, not the worst; the beautiful, not the ugly; things to praise, not things to curse." Psalm 27:45


"I thank you, High God—you’re breathtaking! Body and soul, I am marvelously made! I worship in adoration—what a creation! You know me inside and out, you know every bone in my body; You know exactly how I was made, bit by bit, how I was sculpted from nothing into something." Psalm 139:14-15
