Dr. Norris J. Chumley Satisfied Life

Yesterday was the first day of Spring. It’s so delightful, and so welcome. Oh how I need some warmer weather. Oh how I want to see the beautiful spring flowers – the crocus (already coming in), the daffodils (the green shoots are sprouting), and the tulips – oh the tulips! My mind is full of…

The Bible says in Genesis that God created everything, but then he took a rest on the seventh day.  I’m going to do that, too.  Not create!  God did that, and I certainly can’t create much, myself.  I’m going to do what he did on the seventh day, and rest.  Time for a recharge. I’m…

The events recently in Japan are very alarming. First, the earthquake and the resultant Tsunami were devastating, and so tragic. We are seeing pictures of whole towns and cities destroyed. Families missing, loved ones killed. Oh so horrible. Now, though, attention has shifted to the far worse pending nuclear reactor explosions and meltdown situation. It’s…

The best way I know to lose weight is to ask God for help. Let go of all the worries, fears, and anxieties you may have, which may be causing you to over eat and be sedentary. Give them to God. Look around you at God’s creation and remember the awesome power that set this…

This morning, right now, I’m not quite ready for my daily hourly workout.  I have some deadlines to answer (including writing today’s blog!), and some plans I want to accomplish right away. So I put on the radio to a station that had some high-energy music playing, turned it up loud, opened the doors and…

I remember as a child visiting the “old folks,” my Great Aunt and Great Uncle, my Grandmother, even my parents, who I thought acted very old.  I remember that they didn’t move very much.  I’d be up and about, dancing around, little-kid-like.  They’d be sitting all the time. As the years went by, they sat…

Tonight we begin an experiment in group prayer.  We’re praying the Jesus Prayer together on Twitter each night.  Join our group @Jesusmysteries, then join us at 10pm (Eastern time) and recite the Jesus Prayer out loud and in text, ending each “tweet” with the hashtag: #mjprayer.  That joins us together for a few minutes each…

With the news of the severe earthquake and tsunami off the coast of Japan, I am moved to pray for the victims and for the survivors. Please join me. God,I witness a small part of your infinite Creation and know that nature is both constructive and destructive at times. I don’t like the destructive parts,…

Here is what we are having for dinner tonight. Three kinds of green vegetables. No “greens” as in leafy kind. Greens in other ways. Tis is the kind of dish that your can really eat a lot of, with no remorse or guit, as theyare totally good for you, and a totally non-fattening. DR. NORRIS…

It’s all abuzz – you’ve probably heard about the hCG or “hormone diet.”  If not, there’s a book out, injections available, many doctors are talking about it, as are bloggers and reporters.  I think the hCG/hormone diet is just another fad diet, and might even be dangerous. I would definitely stay way away from it!…
