Day 6! A Day of Sabbath Rest and Fasting!

Yesterday, Day 5, I worked worked the polls, a 14-hour day!  I felt totally fine with not exercising.  So I guess it was a free day.

Today is Sunday and I woke up with the idea of Sabbath rest on my mind.  I felt God saying give your body a Sabbath rest from food and feast on My words.  So, today is going to be a fast day unto the Lord.  I have the distinct impression today will bring me a deep cleansing, both in my soul and in my body.  I am up and have opened the front door of my house and the back window of our family room and there is a fabulous cool breeze blowing through the house.  In the same way, I am opening up my heart and mind to the Lord and to His Word, letting the mystery of His love blow through me.  I feel as if I have walked through The Gate of His love and am lying down in the greenest most luxurious pasture I have ever seen.  He is restoring my soul!

Today, as I do my sit-ups and push-ups, I am going to reflect on the fact that He is watching me.  I can even see Him offering to hold my feet, cheering me on!  Then He and I will walk together, talk together and my cup will be running over!

I hope for all of you , my friends, that your day will be filled with the knowledge of God and how very much He loves you and wants to be with you.

Blessings, Anna Marie
