I’m done with eating. I’m so over food. Well, at least for the next 7 days I am. Tomorrow we are beginning a week of prayer and fasting at People’s Church. I would be lying if I didn’t confess that it’s going to be difficult for me, but at the same time I am excited about what’s going to happen. I’m excited about what God is going to do in my life and in the lives of others. One of my goal words for 2010 is discipline and I know that during this week of fasting I will definitely be developing some discipline.
My focus during this week is simply to put myself in a better position to hear from God. To hear what He would have to say to me. I don’t have an agenda to gain some “thing”, but rather experience a closer relationship with my creator.
The cool thing is that God wants to speak to each of us uniquely, but often times we don’t put ourselves in a position to hear. Is there something that you can fast this week in order to draw closer to God?
