I awoke this morning with a question echoing in my mind, "Is your stomach your god?" It only later dawned on me the perfect irony that today is Ash Wednesday, the first day of Lent. I immediately grabbed my notebook and started writing down thoughts that I didn't want to forget. I'm not making this up, and I feel quite confident the Lord was speaking to me even while I slept. I had already made the connection to fasting but I thought this concept of your stomach being your god sounded familiar, like something Paul said once in one of the epistles... I looked it up and bingo.
