So we are all giving up something in our lives for one week that could potentially have too much power over us.  At youth group I heard some pretty impressive goals, so I’m excited to see how this goes. For me, I have chosen to abstain from candy and chocolates, because we have a ton of Easter candy in my pantry and I literally cannot walk past it without eating something.  So, that’s what I’m giving up.  

What’s funny is about 2 minutes after deciding that at youth group, I walked over the cafe and Melissa was eating Jelly Beans.  I said, “Yum! Where’d you get those?!?!?” She pointed me over to the cafe, and I grabbed one and shoved it in my mouth.  As I happily ate my newfound treat, I slowly realized that it took me all of two minutes to break my fast!!! 

So I spit it out.  :)  What’s your fast??
