Day 2 now complete. A wonderful church services tonight, and previous to that, praise practice. I was hoping I'd have enough energy to play the drums for the service, and I said a special prayer... and I did. I managed to conserve my energy, and we didn't play songs that were TOO fast. Going up stairs is a little tougher, I can't run up them like I usually do, but that could be entirely mental.
All my coworkers were at work today, in contrast to yesterday, however they were contentious. Especially the Christian girl that's usually my closest "ally", she was NOT in a good mood, and took it out on me. I do wonder how it is that the enemy can use Christians sometimes even more than he uses non-believers. But I managed.
I'm still hungry. In fact, if anything, I think my sense of smell has become far more acute. I could smell food from far off. I think the large amounts of water I'm drinking, as well as the v8 and milk once a day, are helping me keep my energy levels and mental dexterity up.
I think tomorrow is going to be one of the worst days, as my body shifts from stored energy reserves to ketone bodies from fat. We will see. I'm still successful in not letting hardly anybody know. But I found out at church tonight that there are a LOT of activities coming up... it will be difficult to either avoid or not eat food in a social church setting.
Also I church tonight, I got a "once in a blue moon" chance to testify. I mentioned how my faith was soaring, how there were good things in store for the church. I know a testimony is supposed to be what God has done, but what is wrong with testifying about what God is going to do? My faith is the evidence of things unseen, and if I have the evidence, it's as good as done. I want to see prayers answered, healings performed, miracles in the church, evil spirits cast out, needs fulfilled, people saved, my family renewed, and the church revived.
One day at a time.
