Today I fasted. My oncologist wouldn't be happy! However, I felt led to do so. Not only that, but I actually gained weight this week, which tells me God was preparing me. No solid food from 10:30 last night until 10:30 tonight. No TV. No news. No Twitter or Instagram. Only Facebook was to ask a couple of people questions and reply to one well-wisher, plus post my website. I've been re-reading my workbook from Priscilla Shirer's Discerning the Voice of God study. I listened to some old favorite Christian songs while sewing. I walked on Clark's Creek/Mallard Creek Greenway with Jim. Typed up my first page on my website. Prayed a lot. Cleaned out my jewelry box. I fixed and delivered goodie bags to my street last week for our church serve day, but I know other families in the second cul-de-sac off of my street. I bought extra goodies this week, so I made up enough bags to deliver to the other street, and took them out today. Saw a family outside, so we chatted a few minutes. Their daughter played with Katie when she was young. I'm eager to eat and work on my fan fiction story, but I needed to unplug and declutter- both my mind and some of my stuff. I was reminded in the study that I like to be intelligent and right. But those aren't the things God is asking of me. Delayed obedience is disobedience- which is why I stopped right then to send a message on Facebook. I had a quesiton about something I'd delayed. "Our spirits are saved, but our souls and bodies need some serious work."- P. Shirer, based on James 1: 21-22
