Month 2: Status

1-It is almost impossible for me to have a conversation without questions.  I have been surprised by how many questions I attempt, only to be reminded of my fast.  It seems like a small thing, but this fast is revealing to me how much I like to control a conversation instead of listening.

2-Struggling with the procrastination thing over the last couple of days because I have been really tired, but still no excuse...

3-Don't think I have raised my voice...and that is BIG.

4-People pleasing...umm...still an issue.

5-I think I am still inflicting expectations on some of my family members...gotta GET.OVER.IT!

6-I've made strides in the nagging, but obviously, still need some work.

7-Ah...perfectionism.  This is the controlling factor with expectations and nagging, I believe. Therefore, see #5 and #6.

My goal in "fasting" from these behaviors is to become more about peace in Him, and less about the excess of me.  I wish I could say that had always been "my thing", but judging from the above, I don't believe that is the case.  STILL a work in progress.
