Farewell Sunday

Today is my farewell from the Rogers Salvation Army. After today I will not have any Officer duties for at least six months. I am relieved and yet apprehensive - this is all I've known for sooooooo long - 13 years. And even though it is only temporary I feel a bit guilty - like I've let someone down. I know that feeling is not coming from the Lord so I am choosing to see it as what it is - Satan trying to put condemnation on one of God's children.

I accomplished one of my goals yesterday - I ran in my first 5K run and yes, I ran the entire way!!!!=-D I was shocked - I thought I would have to walk at least part of the way but I didn't. I even was able to keep going up an incredibly long hill. It felt good to finish.

I plan to test for my personal training certification in March so now I will begin to work towards that now that I will have more time to myself. And, of course, my surgery is in less than a month! UGH!

God is good and He will see me through!

Love you ALL! Pray for me as pray for you! Kari

WOW
You look awesome!! I am jealous! I have lost some, about 40lbs, nothing like what you have done. You should be so proud of yourself. I am very proud of you, I am certain that the work, pain and long hours put in to losing it, is well worth it now!!
