Day 14 of FAST

Posted at 11:28 pm by Kelly | no comments

2 weeks done. 1 week to go.

Food options are dwindling down. We’re getting sick of eating the same thing over and over again.

We try and change it up slightly. Here we are having sweet potato waffle fries with black beans, pico, & avocado on top. Something I like to call, Daniel style Nachos.

I had a bunch of random veggies in my fridge that were going to go bad if I didn’t act soon so I threw them all together and roasted them.

I put these veggies over some brown rice for lunch at work. Oh my! were they good.

Fried Rice is another favorite. Normally, the recipe is for Shrimp Fried Rice. I just leave out the shrimp and the red chili sauce.  I make a big batch of this and Ryan warms it up for his lunches every day.

Breakfast smoothies are a must for me in the morning. They fill me up and are quite yummy.

I’m pretty sure I’ll be ready for my Chocolate Chex next week though.

X is doing great on her fast. She withheld from a cookie at school since she was fasting from sweets today and has been super responsible for remembering what she is fasting each specific day. I am super proud of her!

Spiritually speaking, I feel like I am in constant warfare right now. The “big decision” (which I thought was made has now been postponed until Monday by Ryan) has had me all over the place emotionally and spiritually. I feel like I’m having to fight negativity and pessimism harder than ever right now. God is definitely working on pruning some areas in me. Revealing parts of my life that need to change…convicting me of truths…and opening my spirit of willingness to obey.

It’s been challenging, I can’t lie. But I’ll do just about anything to not stay the same…..I’ve prayed for many years: “God change me, break me, mold me , make me…..whatever you do, don’t leave me the same!” I can say that I will definitely be changed by these 21 days.
