The Week 2 Blues

Wow, was yesterday a terrible day. As awesome as week one went, I probably should have been expecting some sort of spiritual battle/resistance on the way. It hit yesterday. Doing my first day of liquids only proved to be quite difficult. I wanted to eat food all day, and I wanted to quit fasting in general. Then, I was so hungry I really couldn't drink what I know I needed to be drinking; physically I just didn't have it in me to drink anything. Also, I have a cold, so that was fun. Oh yeah, we also had the lowest turnout of students to a small group in something like a year... Good times. Almost forgot, Amanda's blood pressure was through the roof and she had to spend about 3 hours from 9-12 at night in Labor and Delivery.

The incredible thing through it all, is that God did sustain me. I stayed up until past 12am so I could eat before bed and had some potato soup. I'm also marinating green beans in chicken broth for lunch today, so that's hopefully exciting. Had some good prayer time also yesterday, but it seems like most of it was "God help me", "God kill me" and other phrases like that. Well, God helped me and didn't kill me and I'm appreciative for that today. I'm spending the next hour or so reading in Genesis, and expecting to hear from God. Remember, if you have any prayer needs please email me at sean@cccsac.org and I will add them to my time.

Phil 3:14 "I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus".
