Day 2 of 21 in the Daniel Fast!

Ok, I think I commented too quickly yesterday! I ended up having a tremendously big headache that began about 3:00. I finally went to bed around 9:30. The good thing is that I woke up this morning without a headache - yet! While I will admit that I am totally addicted to caffeine, I also realized how much I like bad foods - a lot. I don't mind eating healthy, I just mind eating healthy for more than one meal a day. :) Of course, I also admit that I like the cheap fattening foods better than the healthy alternative. But the bigger part of all of this is WHY I am in this to begin with. I must remind myself that when I want something that I cannot have - I need to run to HIM. I need HIS strength. I need HIS direction. I need HIS presence. I need HIM and nothing else. I need HIS nourishment, not a piece of chocolate. I need HIM and nothing else. I need HIS companionship, not the comfort of coffee. I need HIM and nothing else. I need HIS life for me, not the shallow life of the things of this world. I need HIM and nothing else. Lord Jesus, may I find comfort and contentment in YOU and YOU alone! Praise HIM and nothing else.
