"...Learn how to stop and take time for yourself. Some people have the tendency to run themselves down doing for others and never taking time out for themselves. Now, it's your time and through Who Cares? We Care!, it's your time of refreshing.
Set your mind on things that are true, honest, just, pure, lovely, of good report. If there be any virtue; if there be any praise, think on these things. You can do all things through Christ; He is your strength.
* TAKE: Time for yourself
Stop and put all things aside. Cater to yourself! Get alone by yourself and get your mind together. Forget about those things which have you weighed down. Set your mind on things above and on things which will do you good. Set your mind on what you want to achieve as you embark upon a new journey to healthier living.
Mark 6:31-32
And he said unto them, Come ye yourselves apart into a desert place, and rest a while: for there were many coming and going, and they had no leisure so much as to eat. And they departed into a desert place by ship privately.

* INITIATIVE: I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me.
By the strength that God gives you can make it through your workout. He will give you the energy to stay committed.
Philippians 4:13
I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
* MAKE: A difference! Attitude is everything.
Always keep a positive attitude because it's JOY! And the JOY of the Lord is your STRENGTH. Don't allow any negative talk to come out of your mouth to hinder your focus on working out. Remaining positive, encourages others around you to have hope that they can achieve also. If you want to succeed, keep all negative thoughts far so that you give yourself no room for failure. When you have done all, stand and be strong. Never give up because in the end, YOU WILL WIN!
Ephesians 4:29-32
Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers. And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption. Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice: And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you..."
