Nutrition reset – Day 10

Continuing to feel good about my nutrition. Tonight, I watched a DVR recorded episode of extreme weight-loss. I find this show quite inspirational, because it helps me to realize that my heart for transformation from the inside out is right on. Those who succeed in transforming their bodies first succeed in transforming their heart and mind. This will be me, I will not stay in this emotional and mental turmoil for the rest of my life. I will not stay in this shroud of fat due to multiple traumas over the course of my life. I will break out, I will be who God called me to be. End of story, beginning of life!

  Monday, January 29, 2018 Reflections on Celebration of Discipline—The Discipline of Guidance, Part 1 Excerpt: Perhaps the preoccupation with private guidance in Western cultures is the product of their emphasis upon individualism. The people of God have not always been so. God led the children of Israel out of bondage as a people. Everyone saw the cloud and fiery pillar. They were not a gathering of individuals who happened to be going in the same direction; they were a people under the theocratic rule of God. His brooding presence covered them with an amazing immediacy. Patiently God prepared a people and in the fullness of time Jesus came. And with him dawned a new day. Once again a people were gathered who lived under the immediate, theocratic rule of the Spirit. With quiet persistence Jesus showed them what it meant to live in response to the voice of the Father. He taught them that they, too, could hear the heaven-sent voice and most clearly when together. “...

Monday, November 27, 2017 True Service vs. Self- Righteous Service: The Discipline of Service, Part 2 (Inspired by Celebration of Discipline by Richard Foster)

Monday, November 27, 2017 True Service vs. Self- Righteous Service: The Discipline of Service, Part 2 (Inspired by Celebration of Discipline by Richard Foster) “True service comes from a relationship with the divine Other deep inside. We serve out of whispered promptings, divine urgings. Energy is expended but it is not the frantic energy of the flesh. Thomas Kelly writes, “I find He never guides us into an intolerable scramble of panting feverishness.” (Foster, Richard J.. Celebration of Discipline: The Path To Spiritual Growth (p. 127-128). HarperCollins. Kindle Edition.)” “True service builds community. It quietly and unpretentiously goes about caring for the needs of others. It draws, binds, heals, builds.  (pp. 129-130).” Scripture: Philippians 2:1-7 1 So if there is any encouragement in Christ, any comfort from love, any participation in the Spirit, any affection and sympathy,  2  complete my joy by being of the same mind, ha...
