Day 31 - March 24 - A Pause for Prayer

Dear Heavenly Father, I lay these efforts at your feet. It is because of your wisdom and grace that you've given me yet another chance at LIFE. I thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for allowing me the freedom of finding my own way with your beckoning hand encouraging me ever forward. You are the source of my healing, my strength, my courage, my power, my love and my desire to find the best parts of me. Father, through your blessings I've come to know the purposes of this body.

Father, I also pray for each person who reads these words, that they may also be restored. May he or she find you in their efforts, Father, that in your supernatural healing they will find their own best selves. Lord, on behalf of all of us I submit my petition to you, that you bless our goals and you reveal to each of us how to live out the life you have intended for us, blessed in your holy light. Father, I pray that each person comes to know his or her value by virtue of being your child, whatever their background. We come to you, Father, with all our brokenness, insecurities, and despair that you may replace these weapons of the enemy with healing, peace, a renewed sense of HOPE and the expectation of better things to come.

Your dreams are so much bigger than ours, Father, and with anticipation we seek your will. We love you, Lord. In Jesus' precious name I pray. Amen.

Meaningful Movement: 1 hour of Beginning Toning

Foods that Fit in a Baby Bowl, Day 31:
-small tortilla with 1 egg and slice of American cheese
-small tortilla with 2 eggs and slice of American cheese
NOTE: I only need one egg to feel full.
- 8 mini Nilla wafers
-Chocolate Cheerios with 1% milk
-Whole grain chips with chunky homemade guacamole
-1/2 pita stuffed with ground beef (cooked with garlic, green pepper, onion and garlic salt), fresh avocado and cheddar cheese
-banana and peanut butter smoothie
NOTE: I was SUPER hungry when I made the last two items and didn't wait for the 20 minutes. I really could've just eaten the pita but the banana was on its last day.
