Porque Deus não nos deu o espírito de covardia, mas de poder, de amor e de moderação. 2 Timóteo 1:7 (João Ferreira de Almeida Atualizada)
Estou de volta! As férias foram ótimas! Estou bem descansada. Como sempre, é bem difícil de seguir a redução alimentar perfeitamente quando viajamos. Meu marido não estava se sentindo bem entao só caminhamos 2 dias em vez de 4. Antes de sairmos, nós combianos de comer somente frutas, legumes, verduras e peixe, o que nos ajudou bastante nessa viagem. Fiquei com medo de ter passado do meu limite, mas quando escrevi tudo o que comi vi que não passei, essa foi uma ótima viagem. Fui capaz de fazer escolhas muito boas, tudo graças a Deus. Deus não nos deu um espírito de medo mas de poder, de amor e de moderação! Lembre-se disto e tenha um dia abençoado!
For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline. 2 Timothy 1:7 (New International Version)
I'm back from vacation! We had an awesome time! My husband didn't feel so good while we were away so we walked only 2 out of 4 days. Before we left we decided only to eat fruits, veggies and fish while we were away, which helped us tremendously. I was scared I surpassed my limit, but when I wrote everything down I saw that we had a very good week, thanks to God. He has not given us a spirit of fear but of power, love and self-control! God is great! I realized we have 3 more weeks til Thanksgiving. I did more reading on health this week and this tool has been very helpful in my journey. Another thing I did was to go back and study my eating plan and see things I had not been doing correctly. Because I changed eating plans I mess up the portions :) I usually mess up in fruits and veggies which is really a gift to my body but I feel led to follow the plan exactly as it is written. I'll write more tomorrow.
