I already feel better after one day of restricting my carbohydrate intake. Bad habits creep in slowly and soon the abnormal becomes normal.

It reminds me of the verse in Proverbs, "A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest" and soon I am overtaken by my own foolishness. I have a daily witness as to how strong the flesh is---myself.

I thank God for His love for me which keeps drawing me back to center where I can rest in His ways and not my own.
