Fasting and Praying - Day 30

Getting through the fog !!!

I woke up this morning, well rested, it felt great. I give honor to God for waking me up this morning and starting me on my way. I don’t take this statement for granted. I truly appreciate each day that God gives me on this earth to do his will. As I drove into work, I drove down a wet, foggy path. I compared the foggy road to my life. I said I know God is gonna lift this fog today so that we can see clearly, as surely as I know within a few hours the fog will lift, I trust and believe God plans to lift the fog covering my life. I know behind the fog there is beauty and the sun will shine again. God is trustworthy, He is reliable !! I don’t know exactly when the fog will be lifted but I trust that it will be lifted. As I write this I believe it. The fog in my life gives me a better appreciation for the sunshine.

Today has been real good for me. Why, NOT because God has poured financial blessing on me, but because I know and believe God loves me. I want God to know I love Him, I show Him love through my obedience. Obedience is difficult, my submission, doing what He wants. As I move through the fog, I stay focused on Him, keeping my eyes on the road. Knowing he will guide me through the fog, when I listen.

I find myself shopping at Miles Market more and more for my fruits and veggies. The freshness is guaranteed and the prices are wonderful. I got a large bag of about 15 extra large oranges for $1.99, a pack of blackberries for .99cent, 2 packs of strawberries for $3.00. I brought extras so I can freeze them for my daily use. I had never froze fruit, so I did my research and it is simple.

------Wash, dry, put on cookie tray without them touch, place tray in freezer overnight. Then put them in freezer bags.

After I visited my mom in the hospital, I was tired and thought I would drop by Liquid Planet for a rice bowl. I asked God for strength enough to come home and cook. I was able to make it home and cook. I have lots of food at home in the frig, it is running over so why spend extra money. I got some really, really good whole wheat loaf bread freshly baked from Miles Market. I cut a reasonable size and began to make a veggie panani. My ingredients included, eggplant, peppers, purple onions, portibello, alfala sprouts, zucini (sp) soy mozarella cheese, garlic and pesto seasoning. I grills the veggies then put it in the panani press. It was the bomb, the Soy cheese and the portibello was my favorite in the sandwich. The portibello has a meaty texture.

(Excuse my spelling errors, it was late and I am sleepy :)

Praise Report - my mom ate a whole sandwich and fries today. She will be home tomorrow. She was fussy today so I know she is feeling better :) Oh, yes it is has been 30 days of Fasting and Praying. This is significant !!! To God be the Glory !!!

Good night I have to and wash a load of laundry.
