Day 18

Our first day of this fast and I already feel I'm losing my mind. This flesh does not like feeling deprived! But I know that my spirit needs this.
Today, I wrote a note to a young girl in our church. She is part of a family that (I don't think) she really fits in. While her mom and sister are physically beautiful but often too self-confident and/or mean-spirited, this young girl is somewhat heavy, a little more plain, and so incredibly sweet. I don't know if she feel what I see, as far as not fitting in, but I hope, if so, I can help make her a little more confident in herself. I would just hate to see such a sweet girl become mean-spirited in order to feel like she belongs. So I told her that she is beautiful and that I appreciate her sweet spirit. I hope it helps.
