My Christmas Present to God: 21 Day Water Fast

Today the beginning of a 21 day water fast. Now I decided to do this while watching fat sick and nearly dead. It is supposed to open you up spiritually and also it helps you lose weight so that's an added plus. I've already had a craving for food today but I fought it off. This is the hardest thing I've ever had to do and it hasn't even been 24 hours yet! I want to grow closer to God while doing this so on my Bible application on my phone, I have a plan set so that I have my devotional content and the scripture to go along with it. I have been growing my relationship with God by attending church, reading the Bible, going to Bible study and studying on my own about how he is and how we should live. Growing my relationship with God has helped me out tremendously. It has matured me in ways that I didn't think that I could mature! I have dedicated this fast to the Almighty because it just seems like the right thing to do. It seems as though in this time of my life in the middle of my spiritual journey that I should do something to show that I have grown and matured and couldn't do so without God on my side. Giving up food for 21 days is nothing compared to what he gave up for us. He gave up his life so that we could live without sin. This is my Christmas present to God. I hope that he likes it. So again God bless and keep striving to be the best person that you could be.

Sincerely,

Tori G.

2014! A new year! A new me!

Hello! It's been over a year since I have posted to this blog. But I will restart fresh in 2014! My hair is still natural for a total of three years. I have gained some of the weight back due to the pregnancy and I am trying to get rid of it now. I have also gone in my spiritual faith! A lot has changed since September 2012! I guess I'll be writing about it soon. So let's begin. A new year. A new me!
