Soda Pop or Water?

They say drinking water is good for you. Some say 8-10 glasses a day. Some say half your body weight in ounces a day( can one drink that much??!) but when I used to drink a lot of soda pop water just tasted blah,boring even yucky. So what was I to do? I had to purposely drink water even when it wasn't pleasant and to be able to drink water I had to drink less pop. Something happened over time...now I LIKE even PREFER water over pop. In fact pop doesn't taste very good to me now. That reminds me my walk with the Lord. If I've been spending lots of time watching tv and movies even great fiction I get this taste for it and want it more and more and more and then when I do spend time in the Word it can seem blah and boring. I've redeveloped my taste for "soda pop" instead of "Water". Refreshing life giving water . So once again I need to purposefully drink water even when the taste for it isn't there temporarily. That's what's been going on with me lately and slowly my taste for cool ,clean refreshing water is returning Ahhh. Pray for me. Oh and spent the time I was cleaning the kitchen and bathroom today catching up listening to my Bible after I'd committed to listening to it this year and was behind like 8 or 9 days and it's only the 14th! Jonathon reminded me of it this weekend just by his mentioning that he'd been listening to his while he walked on his treadmill. Thanks bro- do we need each other or what!
