Today is our last day of this sugar fast. I have been spending time looking forward at the next chapter clothing, but need to put this chapter to bed before I rush off to the next.
In light of the fact that it is Thanksgiving in two days, I am going to focus on what I am thankful for and what this fast has made me more thankful for.
1. I am thankful I am not a cake baker at Wegmans or anywhere else. That would have been HORRIBLE this past month.
2. I am thankful for my kids. They were so good and so strong through the entire 30 days.
3. I am thankful for my small group. The laughter shared, recipes, victories and pains have made this 30 days go by quicker than if I had been doing it alone.
4. I am thankful for my health and will try not to take it for granted again.
5. I am thankful for challenge and how it refines me and makes me a better person.
6. I am thankful for Jesus and the fact that I AM NOT ALONE EVER.
7. I am thankful for my support group and the little things they did this month to lift me up and cheer me on.
8. I am thankful for friends who let me smell their pumpkin lattes.
9. I am thankful I am a strong, intelligent human being.
10. I am thankful for my husband who is always by my side, supporting me in all the wack-o things I come up with.
Gal 5:22
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.
