Day 2 brought a lot of encouragement from my friends and family. It helped me to get closer to Jesus. Its amazing... the feeling of going on this journey of fasting to have a rendezvous with God, is so different than fasting before a surgery. I remember having to.. not eat after midnight because of a surgery the next day. The hunger and weakness from that was so hard... but after almost 2 days of not eating... its been good, I feel strong. Its because the Spirit of God is so close. The only thing that is happening is my sense of smell is a little off. Jill was fixing something for herself to eat and it smelled so good... hot sauce! Man it smelled good to me, but the problem was... it was toast and butter!!!!!!

T-I had the opportunity to explain fasting to the teens tonight and I feel they "got it". I challenged them to fast and pray and to strive to have a greater committment and relationship with God. I think what you're doing is going to have such a huge impact on our life! Challenging? Yes...but, I can already sense a closeness that this is bringing in our people. A sense of oneness that we really needed. Remember the scripture...I can do all things through Christ who gives me Strength!!! Love you babe!
ReplyDeleteI started reading from Psalm on PT first day of fasting and I came across one of my fav verses..."Know that the Lord has set apart the godly for himself; the Lord will hear when I call to him". I believe this verse is for our family here and now...we need only to ask.
