Lent- Day 3

I found it a little harder today than yesterday to resist drinking Dr. Pepper. There were several times where I had a soda fountain in front of me and was very tempted to drink some. I still would not call it the most challenging thing I have ever done, though. I feel a little healthier without the soda, I must admit. My twin brother, Zachary, went without soda for an entire season of track, and now I see why. I love to play basketball, and I can see the difference in my performance. But, I'm getting off-track. God is teaching me to have self-discipline from this, and quite honestly I need some. I am by no means perfect, and I have my own stumbling blocks; my hope is to learn to conquer those stumbling blocks once I'm done with this. God give me strength.

Brother in Christ,

Daniel Weiss
