Sometimes despite all my determination to have a great day and to really use it to be a light to others, I seem to feel like I'm under an overcast sky. Today was one of those days. I've been having several weeks of just being so filled with the joy of the Lord and feeling so refreshed by God that today in comparison seemed rather gloomy.
So, naturally, I asked what's changed? Have my circumstances changed? No, not really. I'm still fighting the same battle for my marriage and family. So what else is different? Did I forget to read my Bible and pray this morning? Nope. I read. I prayed. I listened to God. I praised Him. It was a good time. So what is it? I can't figure it out either. Maybe it's my perspective? Although, I don't see how that has changed either.
The more I thought about it the more I realized that it might actually stem from my diet. You see, The last few weeks I have been eating better, especially last week. But this week I've not done so well with that. I had cleansed myself from an addiction to coca-cola and caffeinated beverages. Then today that's the first thing I put into my system. Talk about shock to the senses! Of course, as we all know, one bad decision in the area of food usually leads to another. And thus, here I am feeling lethargic, moody, and rather unlike the person I have been these last few weeks. What's that verse about taking care of our temples? Maybe I need to paste it to my dashboard so that the next time I make a chick-fil-a drive-thru run on my way to class I don't make the same mistake!
