Probably the biggest thing I got out of my 40 Days of Water was a tweet that blood:water mission retweeted.
Beautifully put RT @justicehoney: Some see it as giving something up. I see it as being set free. This helps me get through the day
That actually helped put things in perspective for me. I may or may not do my fair share of complaining about missing flavored liquids. But the thing is, that stuff (tea, soda, coffee, beer, etc…) was allowed a certain amount of control over my life, in the sense that (this is with the tea/soda/coffee, and things like that with caffeine) my body had become physically dependent on that to make it through the day. And that is ridiculous. I long to not be controlled by outside forces other than Christ. I mean that.
No running took place today. Which, really is a shame, because this is probably the only chance I’ll have for a long time to run in the snow…I’ll catch it next time.
