Last time you heard from me I was at the beginning of a battle against an enemy that I knew little about. (If you don’t know what I’m talking about, you can read it HERE). Many things have happened since then, and I can say that the battle has been much easier than anticipated. I’m still not ready to publicly reveal the issues, mainly because we still don’t know 100% what they are; however, the issues are manageable. Turns out that this enemy is much more puny that I originally thought.
One of the biggest accomplishments came through a Fast (which you can read about HERE) I’ve done fasts, including the Daniel fast, in previous years. Each one was a true test of discipline…and I usually failed at them by “cheating” with a nibble of cookie or glass of tea. This time, I stayed strong and focused. Sweets and prohibited foods truly did not have any temptation on me! After 10 days on the strict diet, I felt so clean and renewed…and felt God saying, “see, you CAN do it!” Self-doubt has become replaced with confidence. Not just in my eating habits, but in many areas.
Thanks for your prayers…they’ve worked!
