Day 4!! Honestly, I
woke up rather flat and weary…my body whining and my mind already thinking
there was more on the days list than I could manage. BUT…I’ve been through my ‘process’ and my
devotion time and am feeling much better!
The Science explanations from the video today said the chemical rush of
change is subsiding. That alone
intrigues me…no wonder starting things is easy.
Now, physical changes are occurring in the brain that require protein
and sap energy. She shared a fun
fact: the human brain produces more
electricity than all the cell phones in the US (I think—maybe world). Brain work IS work!!
Thanksgiving, Praise & Worship
Thanksgiving—He never gets tired of us coming to Him, asking
what is keeping me from You, from all I can be.
Wow, long-suffering. He must
really like us J.
Praise—Just basking in His desire for my company.
Worship—WHO He is, how He loves.
.
Gathering Thoughts Instructions
included reflecting back on Active Reaches of yesterday. Reminder to allow no thoughts to enter w/o
checking them in the Light of the Word.
This is powerful for me. My physical
body aches this morning; I’m weary. Riesa has added a new
job—which impacts my schedule and highlights my failure to get her on the
‘license’ path sooner. That sense of
failure, whiny marytrdom and inability was hovering. But in the light of the power and mercy and
grace of God…none of it can drown me!
Focused Reflection His Word says as my days are my strength
shall be. Where sin (which also includes
my failures and missing the mark) abounds, grace abounds more. Instructions encouraged picturing freedom and
used a verse from Genesis that says nothing imagined is impossible.
Journal Picturing
freedom…dropping weights that are not mine to carry. Able to address what God wants done! Wahoo!!
Revisit/redesign Thoughts Created for work that He
designates. He will provide; He will use
the weights to re-direct and re-shape.
Active Reach
The “B” reach from a couple days ago makes sense to me. I will symbolically clench and unclench my
hands before tracing the ‘B’ to remind me to let go of what is not
God-assigned.
I continue to be drawn to the Science part of this. Continued discipline is hard. God gave me a persistent personality that has
amassed quantities of knowledge to draw on but this focused attention seems
like a potentially more efficient process.
What is happening in your soul and spirit?
Daily Disclaimer: Welcome to my walk through Dr. Caroline Leaf’s 21-day Brain Detox. This is a mini-glimpse (and filtered by my personal oddities) of her awesome research. It is no where near a replacement for her program. I hope you can enjoy the program personally. The program includes extensive explanations, videos and follow-up support. I believe it is a good value for the $29.00. The sign on site is here: http://21daybraindetox.com/
