Fast 2011 - Day 2

Today has been a rough day, I have a cold so I am miserable and craving comfort foods.  You know the kind mac n cheese, biscuit and sausage gravy, fried foods, etc, etc, etc.  Everything that is on my fast.  But I have made it threw the day with fighting myself...  Saying "this is Satan trying to de-rail me" "this fast is not about the food I'm giving up, it is about the self-discipline"  "I am doing this to become closer to God, and no biscuit and gravy is worth that"  And trust me, it was one heck of a fight at some points.  But I have prevailed, with the power of God on my side.  It is wonderful the things that happen with you hand it over to Him! 

We just got some pretty bad news on one of the things on my prayer list.  But that is okay, that will just make it that much more of a miracle that people see when God answers that prayer!! 

"My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion forever." Psalm 73:26
