Sweet Rewards

I am at the end of my official full month in a BB challenge group. I have lost 4 pounds and all most an inch in my waist. I am struggling along but think the key for me is I keep pushing the restart button. This is a learning process for sure!
I started thinking about how I will reward myself and came to the realization that rewarding myself for a job well done is hard for me to think about. Lets try that again. I'm not sure I am saying it write.
Basically, It's hard for me to think about rewarding myself. Why is that??
I think of how I'm a mom and how I love celebrating the accomplishments of my children.
I'm also a wife and I love celebrating my husband as well.
But this time my health and fitness journey is about me. For sure one of my biggest why's includes my husband and children but ultimately, first and foremost, I'm doing this for myself.
So again I ask the question. I ask God. Why am I having such a hard time rewarding myself?
And He gently whispers to my heart...
Your worth it.
Your worth a reward.
You are My reward.
I celebrate you!
Receive my goodness today!

And with that I will reward myself because I am worth it! God said it. I believe it. And that's all that matters. Now I am looking forward to all the sweet rewards He has for me!

Rewarding myself in the goodness of the Lord,
