Day 12

We are two days into phase two of this challenge. I don't even think, at this moment, about the progress that I'm making. My life has been turned upside down and pretty much everything is changing. In fact it's so crazy, that I haven't been able to eat because my stomach is a tad upset.

So today, I just sit here knowing that my life is changing so much. And it sounds crazy, but this change is all a good thing...even when it seems negative. My faith is growing in leaps and bounds everyday. And wanna know one good thing that I already konw about my faith growing? My singing is so different. I used to just sing. Now because my faith is so real and I feel so free I am able to "SING!!!"

When I sit and sing a song, I feel it so much within my heart and soul, it feels as if I will burst because it can't come out enough. It's so hard to explain, but I want everyone to know the faith that I have, and know this wonderful God that I serve. He won't ever let me (or you) down. How can I keep this a secret?

This does not mean that I always have a happy, giddy feeling. Just Monday I was crying out to God. I was asking Him why my life is a mess, and why He was doing some of the things He was doing. But the faith comes in when I can, even in my doubt, trust that He is good and will never leave me or forsake me. That's what makes my new faith different.

So forget the 24-day challenge for now (even though I keep doing it and will mention it). A new body is nice, but it's not the point of this life. I will follow God even if I forget diets and grow to be 500 pounds. All that matters is that I love God and I share that Love with everyone around me.
God Bless you, and I pray He gets hold of your heart for life!
