Gosh - I feel like I have missed out on something really good. I had no idea you were doing this, and am so inspired. Thank you dear one.

Your obedience will be blessed, that's certain. It seems the bigger lesson is what we are all capable of when we rely on Him solely. Even in the small things like what we drink.

We are a spoiled nation and it shows.

God removed soda from my diet several months ago and I occasionally ask Jesus if I can have one...he agrees, I get it and...it tastes awful now. I don't ask for them anymore.

God just asked me to stop drinking coffee. Just a week and a half ago...praise Him, I had not one headache, but it has been a bit harder than soda. He has allowed me one or two and they truly just don't taste as good as they used too.

God showed me that I was allowing those to be substitutes for Him. I let those things make me feel good instead of seeking Him to make me feel good.

So, I suppose I have been on a water diet with you and not knowing...

Praising God for what He revealed to you in doing this for Africa!

Awwwww thank you again for participating. I feel VERY ashamed to admit this, but I did cheat a couple of times. I feel horrible that I did....especially after reading your post and hearing about the poor caffeine withdrawals you went through. It's so sad...that there are so many out there who'd do anything for just one glass of fresh, clean water and here I am not even able to drink only water for two weeks. I'm still pitching in the money I did spend on caffeine...the $2.00 or so that it was. And I also raised $20. I stay at home all day....and the only other beverages I usually do purchase are with fast food meals...or my iced tea, Pepsi 24 packs at the grocery store.
Thank you for raising so much and for sticking through it.

Now this was a great thing you did and even a great challenge:)

It really is amazing what we take forgranted - something so small as a cup of coffee or can of soda.

Thanks for the reminder:)

That would have been an extremely difficult challenge for me. I don't know if I could have done it!

Great job for committing to the cause and having the strength to carry through it!

Interesting observation - lots of people say we look alike, but I have a hard time seeing it in these pix - thanks for the comment!

I am proud of you!

Thanks for this update. It turned out to be harder than we'd think, huh?

My dad is better, and has come home. He has a long ways to go to be "well", but he's alive and home. Thanks - I just finished an update when I saw your comment.
