Today in Sunday School, we briefly discussed Christ's temptations in the wilderness after his 40 day/night fast. The first thing that Satan tempted Jesus with was food. I realized that having self control over the things that I put into my body will help me to become more like Jesus. That is a motivator for me. I've known for a while that I have bad eating habits, in that I just eat whenever I don't know what else to do. I want to learn mastry over myself in this way. So, for this week, I am going to write down what I've eaten which will give me some accountability to do this.
I didn't have time last Sunday to review my goals and as a result week three didn't go as well as it could have. It wasn't bad, but as I read through my goals, I realized I'd forgotten a lot of them. So...here it goes again.
Spiritual: the only one I haven't messed up on yet is reading scriptures. I'm still going strong. 22 days and counting! Also, not all of them were quick, right before bed readings. Hooray! Progress.
Unfortunately, I didn't read my Sunday School assignment or the R.S. lesson (though I did for week 2).
Week 4: Keep reading. Read in the am. Read the Sunday School Assignment--John 3-4
Physical: NOT good. I did next to nothing as far as physical activity goes. I tried Yoga one morning, and went for a couple of short walks. I need to make time for this one.
Week 4: Wake up at 6:00 am. Do Aerobics MWF, weights/pilates TTH am, start running during preschool. Take charge of my eating habits. Remember that the temptations of Christ included food. Mastering that temptation myself will help me become more like Christ.
Mother: I'm still learning to listen, but the effort is helping me to better understand my daughter.
Week 4: Spend one on one time with Emma (reading books) and Brooklyn (workbook).
Wife: Didn't do it.
Week 4: Write a note that he can find.
Friend: Called Jenny.
Week 4: Email Crimson, Call Heidi.
