So I am on my way to Kansas City to work with my old pal Judson. I drove 13 hours today and I have about 5 hours to go tomorrow to get there. I am anxious to get there.
To tired to write much more.

I begin this new blog as I have restarted a journey in my life. I decided a month ago that I was tired of my weight hindering my work for the Lord. I started going back to Weight Watchers and have lost 25 pounds in one month! My original intent was to lose enough weight to get a Gastric By-pass. But now I am praying to see if I should continue that route or just try to do it on my own. I am not talking a little weight, I mean after losing 25lbs I am still at 405. That is at least 180 more pounds to lose. I know it can be done but ask you to pray with me as I seek the route that God has for me.

It is critical for me to lose the weight because of the damage I have done to my knee for carrying so much weight over the years. I experience quite a bit of pain daily. I miss playing with the kids, walking my Spaniel, playing Golf with my friends, and being able to do activities with my wife. I am trying to become less so He can become Greater! John 3:30. I will give God the glory for every ounce I lose. It will also restore me physically so I can work at making his name Famous in Raleigh and the World!

This blog will chronicle many areas of my life. I will blog my journey on my weight loss here, I will also explore my love of art, publish my poetry and essays, share what I learn while serving God in at-risk communities, talk about my famil and also share my belief in Jesus. I hope you will follow along and be a part of the conversation.

My name is Scott but the kids all call me Scottyb
