A Fast 40 Days: Day Nine

0

Posted in , ,

I'll take the good days when they come.  Today was one of those days.  I was unbelievably busy at the church today!  Add our mid-week activities on top of that and it makes for a long day.  I felt great by the end of the day, however.

I physically feel really good.  I am resting well and drinking lots of water.  No hunger.  I want to eat, yes, but the feeling of hunger is absent at the moment.  It's a strange feeling.

I've been encouraged by the support I've received over the last few days.  I've had many friends checking on me, and I appreciate those who have been following this blog.  With the strength of God carrying me through, and the support of my friends and family, I feel quite empowered to see this through.  Thank you.

Our lesson in children service tonight was about unity.  Particularly from 1 Corinthians 12:12-31.  I spoke of how we are all a part of the Body of Christ, and how our unique God-given roles and abilities should be used to their fullest capacities to make the body function well.  I brought it down to a kid level, of course, but the principle and point of the lesson remained the same.

I thought, when I came home, if the Body of Christ fasted - together in unity - how much more strength in unity would their be amongst our brothers and sisters.

I'm encouraged right now that my church is participating in this 40-Day experience.  All in different ways, but together, in unity, nonetheless.

I believe we will see God move in ways that we never expected, and I am eager and excited for the months ahead.
