Day 26 Wednesdays, always a day and half
Hitting the ground. Like literally my head is pounding.
But the day must go on. Meeting Bryce for coffee before CCS this morning and the day at school is a light one, probably the lightest so far this year and I get out 2 classes early!!
Head pounding
Hands still stiff and painful
Slept okay
63 blood sugar
No weight loss
After my 20 ounce coffee that was not half caf along with I think a return of energy the morning fly by and I felt great! 2 o'clock came and I was tempted to stop for french fries. I didn't. Made it home to make a juice with some added almond butter. Then I had another juice. I am satisfied. SO I glanced over an article by Tim Challies who I like to read, and in it he listed 8 sins we commit when a person looks at porn. While I don't look at porn the sins listed are these:
1. Sin of Idolatry
2. Sin of Adultery
3. Sin of deceit
4. Sin of theft
5. Sin of greed
6. Sin of sloth
7. Sin of sexual assault
8. Sin of ignoring the Holy Spirit
While some of those are definitely particular to sexual sin I would also say that most of them are the same for gluttony! I will make my own list of 8 ways we commit sin when we follow our gut.
1. Sin of Idolatry- All sin is idolatry, an attempt to find joy and satisfaction not in God himself but in what God forbids (Exodus 20:3-6).
2. Sin of Deceit- Deceit is the act of concealing or misrepresenting your actions.
3. Sin of Sloth-We are called in all of life to “redeem the time,” to understand that we live short little lives and are responsible before God to make the most of every moment (Ephesians 5:16).
4. Sin of ignoring the Holy Spirit-As a Christian, you have the tremendous honor and advantage of being indwelled by the Holy Spirit. One of the ways the Spirit ministers to you is in giving you an internal warning against sin. Paul assures that the Spirit issues a stern caution: “Therefore whoever disregards this [warning], disregards not man but God, who gives his Holy Spirit to you” (1 Thessalonians 4:8).
5. To be continued...
Had a soda to drink at youth group tonight. It's liquid at least...
I am not hungry but I sure do want to eat. Meatloaf is setting on the counter, chips, cupcakes, cereal, sausage is in the fridge. I could eat a little of all of it but I'm not even hungry but I know it tastes good. Drinking a carrot juice and headed to wash my face and go to bed. Another LONG day tomorrow. Elementary art and then cooking for the banquet.
