Ok, so my Lent devotions have a scripture and an action. Today's action was, "I will fast and use meal time for prayer." At first I was like no way, not happening, and then I decided if Jesus could fast for forty days I should be able to for one...so I did. I had nothing but liquids without any sugar and I feel really good about it. It was kind of empowering to not let food rule my life...Not giving in to the food. Was/am I hungry, YES but I didn't let food win. It's kind of like shifting from living to eat to eating to live. Great experience! Will I be eating tomorrow, oh YES!
