morning thought

I should mention that I fell in a hole reading 1Neph14, either way I was trying to figure out if Jacob(Israel) was canaanite, because Isaiah said the head of Ephraim was samaria. Which checks out as Samaria was the land of inheritance for Joseph's sons, but then came the exile? I digress, his bones were apparently brought to caanan as a dying request, so I was curious why not just stay in Egypt, afterall his wife was Egyptian, right...blah, blah, yeah, see, stumbling block, rabit hole.

Once recovered, I realized how much better I am feeling and doing since I stopped listening to all the gurus. This ought not be a surprise. Let me say this, though, it is hard not to focus on weight,  but even now, my weight is likely "overweight" but I am so much better off ignoring that number, it sure was hard, but  obsessing over loosing weight caused me to loose sight of my real goals.

There was a baby bird in a nest in our yard last night. Later, I saw a cat, and did not think anything of it. There are always cats in our yard, but, I was oblivious of the fact that I ought to have helped that helpless bird. Never even occurred to me until this morning. Sad. 

Obviously, I need to repent daily. I have a lot to change.
