every day’s
another battle
trying my best
staying in that saddle
everywhere I look I see
another roadblock staring at me
but steadfast I walk with You
I will not be moved
even though I might be shaken
I will trust in you
I’ll never be forsaken
even when I cannot see
keep me on the path
in front of me
steadfast I walk with You
even when it seems
like nothings changing
help me stay the course
never wavering
doesn’t matter how fast the pace
slow and steady wins the race
steadfast I walk with You
I wrote the song Steadfast recently as I prayed for the Lord to help me keep my eyes on Him. It’s not always easy to stay on the right path because there is temptation all around us. As most of you know that are reading this- one of my biggest temptations is food.
I have always wanted a healthy relationship with food. I wish I didn’t have to think about it, but unfortunately we HAVE to eat every day, so there’s no avoiding that one! And even though I make good choices, for years I have seen no physical changes- despite calorie counting and exercising. I loathe counting calories, and I have done it for years. Even the days when I didn’t actually record my calories, I would still keep a running tally in my head.
But today I am praising the Lord and giving Him VICTORY for FREEDOM from this struggle. It has been since New Year’s Eve- almost 2 months now that I have finally found something that is working for me! It’s called Trim Healthy Mama and heres’s a link to their website- http://www.trimhealthymama.com. It’s not a “diet”- it’s a different way of eating for life. And PRAISE THE LORD- I have found food freedom! No more counting, no more thinking of food as a reward or punishment…just sticking to the plan and focusing on Him!
So if the Son sets you free, you are truly free. John 8:36
I Sing Because I'm Free

That’s great, Tom! I’m so excited you ordered this book! It really was a life changer for me. It’s not really a “diet”- just a different way of pairing foods together… and no sugar! That was the hardest for me. I LOVE flavored coffee creamer, but I have managed to kick the habit and it’s been over 2 months now! A good friend of mine told me about this book and I read it a year ago. It took me 10 months to finally commit to following it. And I have had great success so far… and freedom 🙂 Praise the Lord!! Thanks for taking the time to comment and I hope you and your wife are doing well! Blessings to you, my friend 🙂
