So I thought I'd tell you a little story before I write about what I learned today :3
Today is Thursday and Thursday is my worst day for eating :D
My first class is at 11:30-1:00 and then I have lab from 1:00-5:00. I wake up at 10:30 for class so I don't eat breakfast because the cafe where i usually eat breakfast is open from 7-10. Since I have class straight from 11:30-5 I dont eat lunch either, this ends up in a gorge fest at 5:00 when I eat whatever :D

Today however, we had to let a reaction reflux for 90 minutes... what do I do for 90 minutes?! Go to taco bell ^^; Best decision of my day!

Then i though about what I was doing; I was going out of my way for taco bell and it felt good :D and me being weird, these are the things in which I find my "epiphanies." After spending about 20 hours away from food, I was starving and cutting into my orgo time to eat was well worth it because we are given more than enough time to finish the lab. How much greater is God than Taco Bell?! Being away from God for a few hours should make us hungry for him and cut into our time to be with God. He has given us more than enough time to do whatever we choose so why not cut away from that time to be with him?

This is something that I've known for a while but today it was solidified and the word "hunger" for God made more sense. God is just like food, impossible to live without him and being away from it for extended periods of time should cause physical pain.

Good luck with everyone's lent commitments!
