“This is the day the LORD has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it.” (Psalm 118:24 NLT)
“Since everything God created is good, we should not reject any of it but receive it with thanks.” (1 Timothy 4:4 NLT)
“Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.” (Romans 8:1 BSB)
Today’s been a good day. I’ve had an opportunity to worship the Lord, and an opportunity to work out. I’m growing spiritually, and hopefully shrinking physically. And then, today being a day in which I am just drinking water, it’s been an opportunity to build my will power and an opportunity to rely on the Holy Spirit.
I have to admit there’ve been a lot of thoughts going through my mind today of “go ahead and eat, do your thing.” My bodies been screaming out a little bit. But Praise the Lord! By his strength, and by the assertion of my will, I’m going to make it all the way to put my head on my pillow.
I am determined to be faithful to the commitment that I have made! No turning back. No putting off until tomorrow. No compromise!
It has been a good day. I will drift off to sleep content as I think about…
