Good Morning

I sometimes think that the statement Good Morning is an oxymoron...especially when I've slept for a mere 2 hours. I have already been talking to God about just letting me get through this day without saying anything that may be hurtful, letting me have some peace today, and letting me get some sleep. It's days like these that I have to constantly remind myself today is a gift straight from God and I need to be appreciative and thankful for that gift.
Now I'm done complaining because that just wouldn't be right. I think I will just ramble a bit so just bear with me. I have gone for five days with no sweets! This is a huge accomplishment for me and I think that it hasn't been too bad. The greatest thing is I feel no guilt in the evenings about what I have eaten for the week. I wonder what our challenge will be for next week. I'm thinking no potato chips, but keeping the no sweets challenge. I think this is also the first week that I am looking forward to weigh in day on Friday!
Just one more bit of ramblings. I got an email the other day and there was something in it that really stuck with me, it said something to the effect of: "A miracle is not the suspension of natural law, but rather the interjection of a higher law" I just thought this was an amazing way to look at God's work. That He is always looking out for us and butting in when we need it the most because the way we are doing things is not working. I just feel a lot safer to know that I've got the most powerful someone on my side looking out for me, and that I can have a relationship with Him. How awesome is that!
Anyway, so I'm done rambling so you can be done reading. Have a good day.
