So around this time of the year every one is doing a fast for 21 days. Most churches do the Daniel fast or something based on the Daniel fast. Let me telll tou this is my first one and I fmeel loke I just need to stop while im ahead . One. Im hungry I like to eat. Two not good at disciplining myself. I want to do this for tospiritual reasons, one better Prayer life, get in His word more; hear directly from Him. I would like atleast ine of thise things to happen . I am kind of struggling with this. Keep me in. Prayer cause I may not stay on this dastt long. Maybee this isn't the right time. Also what are some ideas that you are using for your fast

My first fast lasted 3 days. I was by myself and it was a struggle but I was determined. Continually calling out to the Lord when my body wanted what was not in the fast helped so much. He would redirect my attention away from the temptation. Even though it was only three days, it was a most wonderful experience. This is my 4th fast I think, maybe more, cannot remember. It is a little easier due to having been on this kind of fast before. Spending time with Him in the morning, praying and communicating with Him throughout the day is helping a lot. Hang in there Cam Cam, it will be worth it. If I can give some advice, don't focus on what you cannot have, and focus on what is happening in your Relationship with Jesus ?

Needless to say I have ended my fast I just couldn't hack it. I will try again when A) God gives the go ahead and B) when im better prepared to prepare my meals.
Best of luck to those of you who are still going strong, this is your time to get stronger spiritually with the Lord and show your flesh you have authority over it . Keep pushing I'm rooting for ya. Let me know how it is going through out the rest of your fast if the Lord permits you to share; we'd love to hear your testimony of what happened during the fast.
