Free Coffee and Doughnuts
Today, I had the privilege of taking Brady to his first day of Kindergarten. Wow …..time goes by so fast. My little man is now old enough to go to school! As I walked him into his first day at Queens Grant Elementary School I felt like it was Sunday morning at Team Church. So many kids from our church go there and we also have a bunch of teachers, administrators, and volunteers that work there too. It was a pleasant reminder to me of how our church has grown over the years.
Eight years ago, when the school first opened up, I would drop Peyton off for school and I did not recognize anyone at Queens Grant. I think we were the only family there from our church. Not anymore…………
The funny thing was that so many of the parents who were dropping their kids off at school and the teachers that work there are also on the Daniel Fast. Many people were making comments about it as we all walked by the free coffee and doughnuts. It was very tempting….but the amount of people walking around from the church made for great accountability.
How are you doing on your fast? Here are some great and funny comments I have heard:
- I don’t even look forward to eating anymore. Everything taste the same…..eating is no longer fun.
- I can’t believe how much I miss Cheese!
- I am tired of the uncontrollable gas…..
- I want chocolate so bad…..
- Eating now takes to much work…..
- I am just eating the same thing over and over….
- I am so over this…..
However, the best thing I keep hearing:
“This has been the best experience for me. God is showing me so many things and my mind is always on Him!”
Stay Strong……..3 1/2 days to go!
