December 30th 2015
I started a fast for 21 days and today I made it….one day
down 20 more to go. I’m hoping to reconnect with God on a more intimate level
and feel super close to him. I’m definitely hungry but as I was eating a not so
good salad today for lunch I was thinking ok I’m filling my belly what’s the
difference if it is great tasting or not so great, and the Lord quietly
whispered it’s not the fact of being full its giving your flesh the taste that
it wants. He wants to be the taste in our mouths the sweetness on our tongues.
I am going to try with the Help of God to submit my flesh completely in the
area of food, music, TV, and all social media ( only to submit my blogs there will
be no scrolling), also exercising each day for 21 days. I know it will be
beneficial it’s only been a day and I already hear the voice of God so clearly.
I mean if you think about all the miracles that happened in the bible days you
also have to think about the fact that they couldn’t go get a taco at any time
of the day, they couldn’t totally veg out on the couch with your favorite tv
show, they couldn’t scroll the social media for ungodly amounts of time and
focus on other people’s life and not your own, they were completely and utterly
sold out to God! They read the word a lot and they prayed continuously just
like the word tells us... and we wonder why there were miracles. Well I’m
putting myself and my flesh to the test…21 days of the spirit and we will see
on this journey how God reveals his self to me. I hope for your encouragement
and prayer through this.
*Just me*
