The best of all first fruits of any kind, and every sacrifice of any kind from all your sacrifices, shall be the priest's; also you shall give to the priest the first of your ground meal, to cause a blessing to the rest on your house. --Ezekiel 44:30
Did great today. Napped thru some of the caffeine withdrawal and didn't eat until I actually felt hungry.

The are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. Sanctify them by your truth. Your word is truth. As you sent me into the world, I also have sent them into the world. --John 17:16-18
I am struggling today. I have a headache from caffeine withdrawal and am sluggish and hungry. I thought I had hummus at work but I didn't. So just my pita chips, apple, cereal and almond milk so far. I am praying for strength and I know that this is a painful process of detoxifying my body.

Yesterday was much better. I am trying not to feel too badly about not being able to do it the "right" way. I am still giving up meats, sweets and breads and that is huge for me. I've allowed dairy and morning coffee only. It makes me so appreciative of my savior's sacrifice and the discipline of all those in the Bible that fasted for the Lord. I feel like God is already showing me some things--on marriage/dating--keep waiting; on the job--start looking; on serving--be ready.
This morning I overslept and missed 6 a.m. prayer meeting so I am looking all the more forward to 1st Wed services tonight! And hope to make it to church tomorrow morning.
