Six Folds: a new beginning

My name is Julie Lewis.  In no particular order:  I am a teacher, REFIT® instructor, mother, daughter, child of God, wife, minister, reading-fanatic, and overall crazy multi-tasking, organizing woman.  I love God with all my heart and soul.  I love my family and am an advocate for all things related to family and faith.   I am a multi-tasker by heart and I cannot change.  You won't find me sitting still.  I love my kids, but sometimes get cranky with them for no particular reason.  I love my husband, and, to this day, am amazed by our relationship.  There you have it.  I am me.  And, I am enough.

I am a Proverbs 31 woman.  Yes, you heard it right.  Proverbs 31.  In fact, this is the first blog post under my new blog: Six Folds!  I was a previous blogger of aproverbs31challenge.blogspot.com .  Why the change?  I feel like I'm growing as an individual.  Growing in life.  So, I'm going to blog about my life as it falls into one of six folds:

1. Faith--First and foremost, I am a Christian and child of God.  Am I perfect? Far from it....but that's the beauty of Christ.  So, I will be blogging about my spiritual walk.

2.  Family--I come from a big family.  But, I also hope that my love for the family (not just mine) is embedded into what I post.

3.  Friendships--By nature, I am shy and an introvert. People find this funny because I deal with people all the time, as a fitness instructor, teacher, and minister. I don't make friends easily, because of this shyness (though it has gotten better over the years---just ask my parents!).  Once I make friends, I don't let go easily.  I value people.  I value friendships.

4.  Food--My husband is an awesome cook (by hobby, not job) and has recently started his own local television show.  We LOVE food, but also have a desire to live a healthier lifestyle.  I'll be posting about food, recipes, etc.

5.  Fitness--If you would have told me that I would be a fitness instructor, I wouldn't have believed you.  I hated working out and exercising when I was younger.  HATED IT.  But, I am a certified REFIT® instructor.  Check them out at refitrev.com.  I adore this company and everything it stands for.  So, I'm positive that you'll hear me talk about REFIT®.

6. Fun--Life is what you make of it.  So, why not make it fun?


I hope that you'll continue with me on this six-fold journey!  Be blessed!
