One of the homework assignments I really appreciate is Kingdom Experiments in Spiritual Life and Community where we could pick something to fast from and I picked two things to fast from and that is facebook and baking. I choose to fast from these two things because even though they are good they had become a distraction to me and the things I need to get done like homework. I would sit on facebook and procrastinate instead of do homework or I would bake instead of do homework. I still really like baking but since I've been fasting I've felt so much freedom.
Things I've learned from this homework assignment
- you can't run form problems
- God is the only on who will satisfy
- as humans we easily pervert wonderful gifts and make them gods
- time management is important for homework and fun
- Dealing with relational problems can be rewarding you just have to be willing to put time into them.

I love that you're so much of a homemaker you have to fast from baking. =) Glad to hear that you're doing well, albeit busy. Praying for you. Hope to see you before I get up to school...
