Thank you to all those who have taken the time to respond to yesterday's Journal entry, AND to all of you who clicked SUPPORT. I'm touched by the outpouring of encouragement. Today is Day #10 of my extended fast, and I'm down a total of 33 pounds for the year. Only 1/2 pound lost this morning, but that is probably due to the fact that I've been putting salt in my water to keep from being dehydrated. BOY does it make me thirsty, though!
What I didn't tell you about the 5-minute job on subtitles in the books I'm reading, as that I ALSO pray about one thing from my 22-point prayer list at the same time. So far, God has already answered FIVE of my prayers (it used to be 27 points), and I thank Him for that!
One of the things on the list was wisdom about whether to get Pureflix installed on our TV. It is a Christian network (streaming app) that features wholesome, family-friendly TV shows and movies. We've had it for three days now, and it is being a real blessing. I had become convicted about how all the crime shows we were watching were filled with so much violence (and unnecessary sex scenes). It was NOT uplifting to my spirit. This channel IS, Praise the Lord!
I've been trying to respond personally to each person who has commented on my post, because it is such a blessing to receive the support. I also appreciate my friends who have NOT posted because their views are contrary or oppositional. I applaud your restraint.
Finished my 5th Fasting book. On to #6 this morning.
