Fasting this week…

We have a men’s Encounter this coming weekend and the leadership team for it are fasting this week (Media – full week, Food – Tuesday through Thursday). In light of this I may not be blogging as much – and the content will be a little different when I do. I’m going to focus more on things that God is showing me during this time.

In our church-wide time of fasting in January the LORD really spoke to me about stepping more into a fasted lifestyle. Since then I have been fasting til dinner one day per week (media full day) and 3 full days each month. I’m not doing it (or sharing this) to try and ‘be spiritual’ – I’m just really hungry for God and growing in him.

I don’t know about you but I find it so easy to get busy with life, new baby, work, entertainment and these times of regular fasting are helping me to refocus, and stay on what I know I need to be on. It’s really cool too, because I find that when I’m fasting I’m more sensetive to the Holy Spirit and I’m really growing.
