Day 13

Reading:
Luke 11- Jesus teaching us how to pray. Verse 9-10, Ask and receive, Seek and find, Knock and it will be opened to you. 13- Child asks for egg would give them a scorpion? How much more does your Father in Heaven know how to give you good gifts. Never noticed verse 19 before, " Now if i drive our demons by Beelzebub, by whom do your followers drive them out?" ouch- go JC! Also never noted how Jonah was a foreshadowing of Jesus. Three days then brought good news of repentance and a way to God. 46- the Pharisees were "clean" on the outside but really wicked on the inside. They loaded people down with burdens of the law yet they should have shared as teachers.

Titus
1:16- They claimed to know God but denied them with their actions.
2:5- Women be self-controlled, pure, busy at home, kind, subject to husbands and follow the Word of God 2:10- fully trust as to in every way make the teaching of God our savior attractive. 2:11- "For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men. It teaches us to say 'No' to ungodliness and worldly passions and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives."
3:3-6, "At one time we too were foolish, disobedient, deceived and enslaved by all kinds of passions and pleasures. We lived in malice and envy, being hated and hating one another. But when the kindness and love of God our Savior appeared, He saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of His mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit, whom He poured out on us generously through Jesus Christ our Savior."

High/Low:
- Looking forward to sharing the Three Pepper Salad recipe- it was soooo good.
- Waiting too long to eat lunch and totally crashing with irritation. I guess it was a blood sugar dip or something. Even though I am fasting, I do need to eat every 3 hours on this deal. Trust me, the fast is still working, I go to God constantly with, "I love you more than this sausage patty," (as was the case today) or "You satisfy me more than raw cookie dough right now."
