Day two..New outlook on food and the attacks have already begun. Now, I can't say if it is the enemy or self-sabotage but they are here. But this is not a post of defeat-ion (which I am aware is not really a word), this is a post of VICTORY.
So, lack of sleep because of the baby having a rough night and my amazing husband says, "Why don't I drop her off at school so you can get ready?" Since both of them were ready and I was still in my jammies I prasied God and sent them out the door. As soon as the garage door shut. A thought passed through my head. Wouldn't a Cadberry egg be nice right now. Not a strong temptation but a bad idea cloaked as a good one. I deserve it, right? Rough night and all.
Yet God is awesome. In the that fleeting moment, I was reminded that "Greater is He that is in me, than he that is in this world." My sword! Dan had prayed the armor on our family and my sword...the Word...came out. God said that when tempted we would have a way out. So as I got ready I kept repeating... "Greater is He that is in me, than he that is in this world." And then "Greater is He that is in me, than he that is in a Cadberry egg."
Even better, my sponsor calls. We talk about the lack of sleep and the baby being up and I felt so much better. Her encouragement just rocks. Godly women are the most beautiful and wonderful women ever!
