Aug 21, 2013 - Day 13 of SD: Almost two weeks down, and still going strong!!! I haven't strangled, verbally assaulted, or body slammed one single person! That is quite an accomplishment in and of itself! Tonight was the first real hankering I had for a "No" food. Todd was sitting next to me on the couch tonight watching Duck Dynasty, chowing down on his Monster U Cheez-its, and I wanted one (literally just one) sooooooooo badly! I knew that one would lead to many more, though, so I just answered my discussion question for school and tried to push it out of my mind. Another tiny victory!
I didn't want to compromise at all! Even though one Cheez-it with Sully on it wasn't going to kill me, I desire to settle for nothing less than God's best for me! Too many times in my life, I have compromised little things, which led to big things, which led to ginormous things, which led me here! No more! I am keeping my eye on the prize, and that prize is total freedom! When you take the prefix "com" away from compromise, you are left with a PROMISE! (L. Terkheurst). I'm standing on the promises of Christ my King!
Blessings!
