Submitting Our Plans to the Will of God

Below are this week's progress photos. And here's why you should take them:

  • Photos can show muscle gain and fat loss even when the scale weight doesn't change. 
  • They provide visual proof of progress. This helps with motivation during the process, especially during weight loss plateaus.
  • They help identify what training strategies are working.

My ideal body weight is 185 degrees for a man 6 foot 4 inches tall. I currently weigh 192. 

Of course, God is in control of my life, not me. 

I never think of my goals as autonomous planning. 

I think of health and fitness as a stewardship that submits one's plans to the will of God. 

Paul writes, "And this we will do, if God permits" (Heb. 6:3). 

Paul had a heart posture of humility, recognizing that no believer is ever in absolute control. 

"Where there's a will there's a way" only makes sense from God's perspective. 

You don't need the full picture to move forward.
