<\/a>I must say, after 10 days, I felt so much better! No gut issues, a fog-free brain, and more energy than I thought possible were just some of the results.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
While there were some parts of the detox that were difficult, once I made the decision to give up the bad, it was easy to do so.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I wonder what would happen if I did the same thing with my spiritual life? If I chose to rid myself of the toxins that cloud my mind, caused spiritual health issues or zapped all of my energy.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
For instance if I chose to cut out a specific attitude issue for 10 days, how would that affect my spiritual life? Let\u2019s take Philippians 3:13-14 for example. If I choose to forget what is behind for 10 days, how would that make a difference in my outlook for tomorrow?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Or what about Matthew 19:26? If for 10 days I chose to believe that with God all things are possible what might happen?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Colossians 3 has an entire list of spiritual guidelines that could be used. A 10-day detox from anger, rage, malice, slander and filthy language. In their place add compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Add in a little forgiveness and love and thankfulness for good measure.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I know for certain that I am not able to develop some of these spiritual characteristics on my own, but with God\u2019s Holy Spirit, I know it\u2019s possible.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I know I have a long way to go in both my physical and spiritual detox. But I also know how much better I feel when I choose to live according to the plan\u2026both physically and spiritually.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Are you ready for a detox?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Grace and peace be yours in abundance,<\/p>\n

Recently I decided to take the plunge and try a 10-day detox from sugar, gluten and dairy. I liked this particular program because I thought it was one I could actually do. And I did!
