2015: A Year of Discipline Week 1 lessons

God is still in control.
Grace is a choice.
Discipline is a choice.
Cutting sugar cold turkey takes a toll on the body physically and emotionally.
Patience really is a virtue especially with one's self.
I do feel better in all areas of my life when I make healthy choices.
Having grace for myself is one of the hardest things on my list of disciplines but probably the most important.
Reading Scripture is important even if it brings more questions than answers.
I feel closer to God when I journal regularly.
I am a better person when I am around people more than I am by myself.
Yoga is fun.
Love is a choice. It's also a choice to love yourself.
Loving myself is not easy.
Doing something daily a few minutes at a time really does make a difference when learning to be disciplined.
I didn't strictly stick to my diet for the whole week but I didn't gorge away and I did have grace for myself when eating one little Reece bite.
I didn't read my Bible everyday but again, I had grace for myself and didn't flip out that I am now behind on my reading plan. It's really okay. I also don't have to play catch up. It's not going anywhere and who says I have to read the actual passages on the specific calendar days?
I have peace.
