I have been on an 21 day adventure of fasting and praying, finally coming around the corner and heading into the final stretch...with one week left, I am anticipating amazing things...
God has been already showing up in so many areas of my life the past 2 weeks, some subtle and some knock me over the head moments.
The first week, I cut out sweets and treats and limited myself to only one balanced meal a day. Last week, I added in a facebook fast (except to check emails). This one is harder then the cookies...
I did however, take a break from the fast for about three hours to watch the NFC championship game...and join in on the facebook chatter. Now I am back on track again today.
During the first 2/3 of this journey, I have ministered and been ministered to. I have seen visions and dreamed dreams like never before. I have been given words to write in the form of lyrics. God has touched my life in so many ways. already.. I have seen His hand of protection cover my family, there is no gap for He is filling it.
I am ready for this final week, the battle set before will not be easy for my flesh, I am fasting anything solid to eat. My nutirition will come from protein shakes and fruit juices and plenty of water. He sacrificed so much more for me...
I will continue to use the my hunger and my desire as a reminder to spend my time with Him...on my knees, interceding. Re-presenting my needs and the needs of others to the cross.
The cry out to God...seems more intense as each day passes. More of Him, less of me. I am seeking Him more than my need and He is good. He always shows up!
PAGA!!
