Day 20: Weekly Check-up

Cumulative Scripture Review
A wife of noble character who can find?
She is worth far more than rubies.
Her husband has full confidence in her
and lacks nothing of value.
She brings him good, not harm,
all the days of her life.
She selects wool and flax
and works with eager hands.
She is like the merchant ships,
bringing her food from afar.
She gets up while it is still dark;
she provides food for her family
and portions for her servant girls.
Proverbs 31: 10-15
Turn verses 14-15 into a Scripture-based prayer:
Dear Heavenly Father, speak to my heart and help me to be willing to go to the extra effort to insure that Bo and I have healthy foods from which to prepare our meals. Help us to eat only healthy portions and to maintain a healthy balance between vegetables and fruit, complex carbohydrates, and proteins.
Holy Spirit, guard the thoughts I have while shopping and instead of cravings high processed food, refrined sugars, and fat, to remain focused on the guidelines of what you consider healthy eating. In Jesus name, Amen.

I prepared or printed off the menu planner/grocery list.
