But I really like your idea of reading the Bible for 30 minutes a night -- so much so that I think I may try to do the same Thanks for the inspiration!Her Artichoke Hearthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10236521692833059350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6771878525314120316.post-81910872031503968602009-04-18T09:28:00.000-04:002009-04-18T09:28:00.000-04:00Good plan!

Reading about how strong you were for 40 days and 40 nights, and then your utter pleasure at being reunited with your favorite foods at McDonald's made me totally smile.<br /><br />It also made me very hungry.

You grew closer to God just by the achievement. And look, you are even reading the bible for the next 40 days. If the experience did not bring you closer to God, you would not have set time aside to read to Bible. Everyone who accomplish the goal achieves discipline. Hence, it brings you closer to God because you would not have made the sacrifice if not for him.Natehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07788084324932645006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6771878525314120316.post-87357775883093248702009-04-12T18:54:00.000-04:002009-04-12T18:54:00.000-04:00Way to redeem yourself in the end there.

Now you can grow closer to God and have your Mickie D's too ;)joanofalltradeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12531235342796697451noreply@blogger.com
