Well Day 1 was awesome. I still continue to be excited. I prayed and kept my mind on the Lord throughout the day. God continues to show his hand in my life. Yesterday, I had very little conflict if so it was with myself :) Today my spirit is lifted and I am determined to keep my mind on the Lord. I need to be filled with his presence if I am to grow stronger in my relationship with him.
Yesterday, I went out did some more grocery shopping with a dear friend. It is good to have support along the way. God puts people in our lives for a reason. This a.m. I had oatmeal for breakfast, I have a fantastic lunch packed. It is a shopping bag full of delicious healthy foods. Yesterday I discovered Morningstar Riblets, I am excited about my variety of food choices today; grapes, banana, ptia chips, hummus, Morningstar Chicken Fingers. Oh, yeah yesterday I had an awesome mix of almonds and cranberries as a in between snack.
Please keep me in prayer and remember my mother in your prayer. I am praying for NCBF as we move forward in this season of growth.
Good luck Vanessa. I am fasting also. I have given up red meat, colas, and deserts. I am going to do this for 33 days. The last seven days I am going to try to do just the salad, vegetables, water and juices. Hopefully, as i travel through these next 40 days, I can become more consistent in my relationship with God. You're in my prayers.
