Since I have done this Cleanse several times before, I decided I need to challenge myself this time around. I get bored easily if I keep doing the same things over and over again, I like to spice things up a bit! If you've been to our office you know I'm always looking to change paint colors, re-decorate, see what can be improved upon, etc. I am always looking for change. So for this cleanse I decided to not only incorporate a physical body cleanse, but also a mental/emotional/spiritual cleanse as well for the 21 day period.
I was listening to K-Love this morning on my way to the office and this woman Lysa TerKeurst was guest hosting and talking about her new book Made To Crave: Satisfy Your Deepest Desire With God, Not Food. I thought...how fitting! The whole point of “Made to Crave” is to help people find their ‘want to’- the spiritual and emotional motivation to make lasting changes. God made us to crave more of Him, not food. This is just what I need to move forward on my walk with God and to help me cleanse my life! So I went online to Amazon to see about purchasing this book, and I found Craving God by Lysa TerKeurst which is a 21- day devotional challenge to accompany Made To Crave. What is it about the number 21 that I love?!? I am super excited to embark on this changed journey to greater health for myself.
If you feel you need to push yourself a little further on the cleanse, go ahead and make it what you want! This is the direction I'm feeling the need to follow.
Wishing you much success! =)
Thats awesome Vanessa. God was definitely sending you a sign - works out perfectly with both being 21 day programs (that are meant to carry through a lifetime!). Let me know what you think of the book! ~Nicole
ReplyDeleteNicole,
ReplyDeleteI will definitely let you know how the book is. I started reading it yesterday actually, because I think the book will take more than 21 days to get through. But I am going to try and finish it within the 21 days. So far it has been enlightening. =)
