What a challenge! The day that is... But, I'm glad to report it didn't affect my Healthy Temple Challenge. I'm getting adjusted to the routine. Falling off the wagon is one thing, but when you get back on and are moving in the right direction, that is major. I feel good! Praise God for my rebounder. It's been great. I put my music on and go. Watermelon helps! I found watermelon with seeds at Walmart and bought two, one for the family and one for me. I'm eating a whole watermelon! Watermelon is one of God’s sweetest summer gifts! 🍉 With about 92% water, it helps refresh and hydrate the body while supporting a healthy electrolyte balance during hot weather. It’s also packed with nutrients like potassium, magnesium, and vitamins A, B6, and C, making it a delicious way to nourish your body one bite at a time. Along with drinking my water, I'm happy! And I'm beginning to really feel it. I want to thank Nisanna for starting this. It has been a blessing to me. I read in the Temperance book, and this stood out to me...Intemperance of every kind is taking the world captive, and those who are true educators at this time, those who instruct along the lines of self-denial and self-sacrifice, will have their reward. Now is our time, now is our opportunity, to do a blessed work.—Medical Ministry, 25. and this: Present the principles of temperance in their most attractive form. Testimonies 7 pg 136. I want to do that with what God has given me. If any of you have any ideas of what you would like information on or want to know about, please share. I think I'm going to make a recording form so everybody can record their 8 Laws of health easily! Have a good day, all...

I recently heard someone say they personally would not share something they don’t yet have the strength to fully do themselves. It really made me stop and think for a moment. I’m creating products and sharing things that I truly believe can help people, yet I’m still overcoming some struggles myself, especially food addiction. That journey is still very real for me. But I also believe that sometimes God allows us to grow while we are sharing, learning, and walking alongside others, not just after we feel we’ve mastered everything perfectly. So instead of feeling discouraged, I’m choosing to keep moving forward in faith, trusting that God will continue giving me the strength and victory I need step by step. And if anyone else out there is struggling, slipping, restarting, or simply trying their best, please know you are not alone. This is a safe place to be honest. No condemnation here, just encouragement, grace, and growth. I’m not perfect, but I believe we are all striving together. Let’s keep going together. ❤️

I pray all mothers had a wonderful day. I certainly did. I was taken out to eat, but was pretty proud of myself for choosing veggies. I know it wasn't what it would have been if I were at home, but, I didn't go crazy with it. I did good on water as well. I'm finding if you actually drink the water, it is an appetite suppresent. And today and yesterday I jumped on the mini trampoline (Rebounder) as well as walked. This reminds me of taking baby steps. I was doing this really good and it's like I'm starting over. But, what is good is I'm doing it. In my reading I found myself praying for a faultless character as Daniel had. "A Faultless Character—Daniel was subjected to the severest temptations that can assail the youth of today; yet he was true to the religious instruction received in early life. He was surrounded with influences calculated to subvert those who would vacillate between principle and inclination; yet the word of God presents him as a faultless character. Daniel dared not trust to his own moral power. Prayer was to him a necessity. He made God his strength, and the [153] fear of God was continually before him in all the transactions of his life. Daniel possessed the grace of genuine meekness. He was true, firm, and noble. He sought to live in peace with all, while he was unbending as the lofty cedar wherever principle was involved." Temperance page 152-153 Keep it going.

Happy Sabbath everyone! Today is Day 2, here is how yesterday went😊 Started yesterday morning in Christian Temperance & Bible Hygiene by Ellen White. This verse was very powerful to me: “Be not conformed to this world; but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind.” — Romans 12:2 And what mercies that God accepts even the poor remnant we offer when we finally turn back to Him. Praise God who saves souls as by his goodness and grace💚 The day looked like: 🥤Breakfast Smoothie — berries, soy milk, sorrel greens, flax, hemp hearts 🥗 Lunch Vegan guacatostada with black beans, rice & black bean salsa 🧹 Cleaned the house (with an 18.5 lb baby on my chest 💪🏽) 🍠 Made & gifted a sweet potato pie 🚗 Oil change errand 🌿 Evening walk around the property with Miriam in the carrier 💧 Full gallon of water — done! “Godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.” — 1 Timothy 4:8 Godliness and health aren’t in conflict, they’re in harmony.
