How many of you ate too much yesterday?

Tammy may shoot me for sharing, but I think she may have ate one too many bites of watermelon! With her stomach not working like it is supposed to, sometimes one bite can push things over the edge, and today she looks a little miserable. I can't say exactly how she is feeling because she is still sleeping! Pray that when she wakes she will feel better and that by tomorrow she will be back to normal.

Isn't it funny that when we celebrate we tend to push limits? I haven't quite figured out why we believe that on "this" day our stomachs will be bigger, there are no calories in food, there is no end to our energy, and even when the day ends, there is still the night! Aren't we funny creatures? We tend to do the same in crisis, but instead of excess, we go into deprivation. No time for food, don't need to sleep, can't be bothered to plan, will this day never end?

Do we forget ourselves so easily? Or are we just so controlled by circumstances that we are oblivious to the reality of who and what we are?

If you are one of these people, ask yourself, pray to God and ask Him to show you, what your reasons are. I am realizing as I am typing that this goes way deeper than just holidays, and in some ways that affect my patterns for living. Some patterns that need to be broken, crushed, and left behind. Pray for me and I will pray for you as well.

And, let's all pray that Tammy's lungs come soon.
