Day 4

Tonight I was flipping through my days in my 40 day challenge book and realized I have missed praying before my meals. While I may feel like a failure I must know it is a conscious effort with one small thought causing me to learn to prayer before every meal (not that this is a Christian rule but it's still something I really want to work on and give to God). It is a way to appreciate all that the the Lord has given me not only in the present moments but also the past moments. Tomorrow I will not only work on not complaining (which I forget to work on sometimes) but I will also do my best to consciously pray before my meals.
To follow Day 4 of my challenge I am to do something for my family. For mom and dad I am going to call them, for brother and sister I am going to text them. I want to keep up a relationship with them in a way that even they, who know I am a Christian, can see my light shining for Jesus. :)
Will you treat your family better than you do? I know I must work on this as my friends normally are treated better than the ones I love most. This is grace and this is where I will be Christ-like.
