March 28, 2011 by Traci

This giveaway is now closed.  Jennifer from Joy Ever After is the winner.  Please email me with your name and mailing address (curly2880atyahoodotcom).

Reshaping It All: Motivation for Physical and Spiritual Fitness, by Candice Cameron Bure with Darline Schacht is by far one of my new favorite reads!  It is more than that, it was life-changing for me.  It is a practical book that I will pick up over and over!  You can purchase a copy here on amazon.   

Have a chance to WIN YOUR OWN COPY
at the end of my review!

I don’t know if you are like me, but I get super board with long book reviews.  I will try to make this short and sweet…  here’s my TOP 10 REASONS I loved this book (in no particular order).
MY TOP 10 REASONS I LOVED THIS BOOK!
1)  I love reading about how we can keep our bodies trim and fit for God’s glory.  I am passionate about women’s health.
2) I love how this book talks about reshaping our spiritual life and our physical bodies.  I believe that there is a connection (and should be) as christian women!
3) Such an easy read!  It normally takes me forever to read a book.  I read this one in less than 3 days.  Couldn’t put it down and couldn’t wait to pick it back up!
4) I grew up watching Candice on Full House.  I love seeing what a beautiful woman of God she has grown up to be!  She is truly beautiful inside and out.
5) At the end of each chapter you will find a section called “The Pantry: Chocked-Full of Food For Thought”.  The pantry is organized for readers on the go, who want to flip open the book and grab something to chew on.  It has 6 quick parts:
a) The Main Ingredient (A quick re-cap)
b) A Slice of Advice (Candice answers fan mail)
c) A Pinch of Practicality (practical application)
d) Food for Thought (verses used in the chapter)
e) The Candy Dish (A special quote)
f) From My Stove to Yours (AWESOME HEALTHY RECIPES)
6) Candice is honest about her past struggles with an eating disorder and her spiritual walk.  Very candid and someone you are sure to relate to in many ways.
7) She has a bunch of pictures in the middle!  I’m such a visual person that I loved this section.
8) It is much more than a biography, but a truly motivating tool that will be able to put you back on the right track toward a better physical and spiritual fitness regimen that really lasts!
9) She offers a biblical perspective on appetite and self-control that really encouraged me.  I love to eat… but Candice really speaks direct about our sin of gluttony and why we overeat. 
10) Candice says, “Diets usually fail for one or all of these three reasons:
a) No pain No Gain.  We choose to sprint instead of training for the long run.
b) We’re Spoiled.  We try to change only the food that we eat instead of changing our mind-set.
c) Lack of Conviction.  We don’t truly believe that the benefits are worth the effort it takes to get us there.”
Which one are you?  Are you looking for a practical, inspiring, life-changing book that will be sure to get your spiritual and physical back on track?  Have you been struggling for years, only to be left more depressed and discouraged.  Pick of this book!

Blushing with your delicate, rosy hue, a gentle b Blushing with your delicate, rosy hue, 
a gentle breeze blows through fresh, new blooms.
Your time is fleeting, yet faithful,
a promise of beauty each spring.

Gifting petals that fall to the earth,
You are waiting for me to visit you.
Basking beneath warm shadows,
Deeply breathing in nature’s favorite perfume. 

A legacy of faithful promise,
Graceful, elegant, familiar and kind.
As the sun streams through branches,
Your reflection twinkles and twirls, 
Leaving your dance card upon my heart.

You whisper, come linger a little longer,
No need to be in such a rush.
Through storm clouds, torrential rain, 
and those picture perfect days,
You continue your steady climb toward the heavens.

Your limbs grow stronger, your roots deeper still.
Your humble beauty speaks for itself. 
No need to shout, nor beg for attention.
You hold the secrets of many who return year after year,
Who sit beneath your branches,
and find healing to bloom as well.

What Jesus offers is nothing compared to what the What Jesus offers is nothing compared to what the world offers.  Read 1 John 2:15-17
⭐️⭐️⭐️

Don’t trade God’s perfect timing for impatient substitutes. 

The counterfeit isn’t anything compared to the real deal. 

Surrender brings peace, joy, and rest. 

So trust fully to His perfect plan for your life. 

No more rushing ahead. 
No more backseat driving. 
No more comparing.
No more striving. 

Lay down the endless coveting of an illusion of perfection. 

He’s everything you’re longing for, 
striving after, and so much more. 

Open your hands and release your grip. 
Now you’re ready to receive His good 
and precious blessings.
In a time with so many voices, opinions and commen In a time with so many voices, opinions and commentaries, we can get overwhelmed by the noise. 

What should we believe?
What should we say?
Who's side are we on?

You can never go wrong with running to the feet of Jesus.  Get alone with God today, open His Word, and hear the words that matter above all else.
Walk in God's law Keep God's testimonies Seek Hi Walk in God's law 
Keep God's testimonies 
Seek Him with your whole heart 
Steadfastly keep His statues
Keep His commandments diligently 
Fix your eyes on His ways 
Praise Him with an upright heart 
Guard His Word 
Hide His Word in your heart 
Be Teachable 
Declare His ways with your mouth 
Meditate on His precepts 
Delight in God's statues
Ask to have your eyes open 
Ask for understanding and wisdom 
Find your strength in His Word 
Choose the way of faithfulness 
Set His ways before you 
Turn your eyes from worthless things 
Trust in His Word above all else 
Find comfort in His promises 
Make God's ways your heart's song 
Be friends with those who fear God
Value God's Word far more than riches 
Remember His faithfulness that endures through all generations 
His words are sweeter than honey 
His Word is a lamp to your feet 
His Word is a light to your path 
His testimonies are your heritage 
His testimonies are the joy of your heart 
He is your hiding place and shield 
Do what is just and right 
Hate every false way 
Ask the Lord to be gracious to you
Ask His face to shine on you 
Learn to be saddened by sin 
Daily put His promises to the test 
Peace is given to those who love His law
This world will offer you information, but true kn This world will offer you information, but true knowledge comes from God and His Word.  What are we filing our minds and hearts with? What we meditate on, will consume us and change us.  Let's makes sure we are being filled with truth.  Read Proverbs 2 today.  Look at all we gain from seeking after the knowledge of His Word :

Receive 
Treasure 
Listen 
Be Attentive 
Incline Your Heart 
Call out for insight 
Raise your voice for understanding 
Seek & Search 

-> then you will understand the fear of the Lord and find knowledge of God, righteousness and justice.

He is my shield 
He gives me abundant wisdom 
He guards my path and watches over me 
Wisdom will come in my heart 
Knowledge will be pleasant to my soul 
Discretion will watch over me 
Understanding will guard me 
Keeps me walking on the paths of righteousness
