Running On Empty

Running_On_Empty_Masthead

Hello Everyone,

Thank you so much for taking time out of your day to read this blog post, I appreciate all of you! 

 I am excited for this new school year and to watch my beautiful daughter grow in all the areas she wants to improve. For myself lately I have started a new to me Keto diet. Which I have so loved. The Lord had been showing me I needed to fast for sometime now and I have been for about 3 years. It has helped me grow spiritually and it was showing me what I needed to get done in the natural also, to be the best mom and person I can be. I have always loved working out and having a what I thought was healthy lifestyle. Things have changed for me over the last few month. I am finally losing weight and feeling so much better.

 Last year was a rough year for me and I was running on empty the whole year. I had lost two jobs and I felt like a failure as a mom. I started listening to the enemies lies about me. Then one day Holy Spirit revealed to me in scripture some very amazing and life changing things for me. I started taking every single thought captive. I would ask myself does that thought line up with the Word? If it didn't, I would praise Jesus for who he says I am. I know it might sound strange but, how did Jesus overcome in the wilderness? He fought back with the Word! So that is the method I used. 

 I am thankful for the moments of running on empty because the moments of overflow wouldn't be so special if things where always so easy. Running on empty seems to be a new trend almost. It's everywhere you go people are trying to find a quick fix for not enough energy, or not enough time, not enough space, and I can hear the Lord saying. Here I am. Hear ME! Seasons change and everything in them does too. This go around I want to encourage you with, even if you're running on empty,  that time and space isn't limited. It's our own mindsets that cause limits to form. Jesus is for us not against us. He loves us and dances over us with violent expressions of love and excitement. You are all called by the creator himself. You have value even when stretched thin. Look up and give thanks.

 love you all,
Jordyn

NOW WORD! Jim Spradley

Hey Everyone, Today the Lord has shown me specifically to share this NOW WORD that the Lord gave my Grandpa Jim Spradley. Please Share! My name is Jim Spradley. I am a naturalized citizen of the United States, born in Alberta, Canada in 1950. My father was sent there at the time as an employee of the Texas Oil Company (Texaco).  My parents were transferred to Texas when I was six months old. My wife Judy and I have walked with the Lord for the last 30 years. Our calling has been primarily in the marketplace. We are not well known, and as some say, have been somewhat hidden....in management on ranches in New Mexico, managing an Oil Field chemical business and also owning a very successful business in a small community in southwest Texas which the Lord had us sell about four years ago. I have been a spiritual father to many sons, especially in the last fifteen years. We currently reside on a mountain peak between Ruidoso and Alto NM.  As I have grown in the Lord...

21 Weeks Post Op VSG

Hey Everyone, I am back! I’ve been recovering well from surgery! The Lord has lead me in every step! Thank you all for praying for me and encouraging me along the way. I have had lots of questions about the process so I’m going to answer it all here. My surgery day was 9-9-19. I had surgery at covenant medical center in Lubbock Texas with Dr. David Syn. My starting weight was 258 pounds and this morning I am weighing in at 182 which means I’m down 76 pounds so far. My goal weight is the 130’s! Each day I learn something new but I never get away from knowing I still can’t do this on my own. I have to have the Lord! The Lord is my strength, my shield, and my hiding place! The most asked questions are. What do I eat. At the moment my day looks like a green smoothie with Thrive lifestyle mix in the flavor vanilla or chocolate, lunches are salads loaded with fresh veggies and protein. I can eat about 1/2 of a cup. Dinner is protein veggies and a tiny amount of starch. I try to get in 80...
