bed time - day one - Andee

I am preparing for bed today reflecting on how the day went.  My doctor, who is a Christian, warned me that when I started this fast the enemy would be working hard to derail me.  Boy howdy was he right!  My morning started out good but then Sean became abnormally grouchy and didn't let up.  He was very grouchy for most of the day (until he got his nap) and that made for a stressful day for me.  We are both better now and looking forward to a good nights sleep. 

Today wasn't easy but I know it was easier than the days to come.  With God all things are possible and I can do this.

Day one - Andee

Good Morning!  I woke up this morning not quite knowing how I feel about the commitment I made to fast for the next 10 days.  Then I remembered why I am fasting, so that I can grow closer to God.  Yes this fast will have some health and weight side effects but that is secondary to my main reason. 

I feel all jumbled up all the time and I crave clarity.  I am praying this fast helps me focus and see things clearly.  Time to pray and read the bible.

The Daniel Fast

Tomorrow I start on a journey to health with the Daniel Fast.  I spoke to my Doctor on Wednesday and he gave me his blessing.  I am going to start with a 10 day fast to start and then in the near future do the 21 day fast and then onto the Daniel plan.  I am in desperate need for a change and nothing else has worked for me, mostly because I never see them through but that stops now.  I will see this fast through no matter how much the enemy tries to interfere. 

I am so blessed to be on this journey with two of my best friends and I can't wait to see how this changes all our lives.
