Multitask with food

So today the book kinda added a bit to the previous chapter about eating with awareness. It talked about how for many people, you need or want to do other things while eating. So, you may need to work on your computer, be watching your kids, or want to read a book. The key to doing this while you eat is being aware of every single bite you are putting in your mouth. It describes a little activity that you can do, which is cool.

I like that it says that it's ok to multitask and gives you ways you can multitask. A strict "no eating while doing anything else" is unreasonable and unmanageable for most. People. Making food and your health a priority is the importance in this. Catching yourself if you're wolfing things down instead of eating slowly and paying attention. Anyway, I enjoyed this chapter. AND! I wanted to say, remember those skittles that Keana bought me last week? They are still sitting in my desk waiting to be eaten. Well, I gave Adam a serving, but I still have one serving left and haven't even really been tempted. Awesome eh? I'm proud :)

"If you confess with your mouth, 'Jesus if Lord,' and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved....for 'everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.'" Romans 8:9-10, 13

"And Isaiah boldly says, 'I was found by those who did not seek me; I revealed myself to those who did not ask for me.'" v. 20

This is a verse that has caused many of us to say "well what about those who haven't heard?" What about people who haven't heard the name Jesus, or don't know that he is the one they seek? I believe that those who believe and haven't heard, and who follow what God is telling them to do with their lives, and confess that there is someone greater, that they will be saved. I believe that God knows their hearts, that he knows who is seeking and who is not. He knows who has heard his voice and responded, and who has not. And I love the fact that this verse says that he was found by those not seeking and he revealed himself to those not asking. Because he is good and merciful like that, he just does it. He shows himself and he gives of himself. He gives people chances and opportunities. He speaks to peoples hearts and minds.

Today is a non-workout day (yay Wednesdays!), which is good because my feet and ankles are SORE. My legs are sore too, but I just noticed that my feet are probably really beat up from all the footwork, jumping, and exercise I do. Maybe a nice bath tonight will help that...we'll see if I get home early enough to do it. I do have to do dishes and listen to Richard's sermon for SG tonight. So, gotta roll out of bed soonly.
