6. Sugar free mints

Today's Quote:"It is my prayer that you are drawing strength from each other and that you are truly experiencing the power that is found in fellowship with the Body of Christ."
Jentezen Franklin
Thoughts for your Journal:
1. How do you keep from resisting the temptation of hunger? I think of my husband. Having him saved and brought out of sin and having him back in my life and working on our marriage is the reward and that is a great reward!
2. How can resisting hunger relate to avoiding other temptations in your life? Will-power and self control are really being put to the test at this time. I am hungry, but is it worth it to eat right now? What am I believing for? What is God doing in my life that I can focus on instead of food. Easier said than done though...
