So the fast...I did end up eating a late dinner Monday evening feeling a bit like I was failing but also rationalizing (and isn't this pretty much the way of humanity) I had not eaten since Friday evening so this was essentially 3 days and we had some decisions that I was not clear minded enough to think about to make and I was just tired and getting cranky and generally unproductive. So There!
In typical fashion trying to retain righteousness in my own strength instead of Gods very own gift to me, I tried to not eat during the first half of Tuesday. Crashed and burned on that by around 1:30 or so.
So what happened as a result of this fast so far? Can I tell you the presence of God was so strong in many ways and in fact has me in tears now. So maybe I didn't pull on that to carry me through the finish of my fast in a very solid way but HE IS GOOD and AMAZING!
1. We have recieved permission by New Song to hold the Marriage Seminar in their facility this February (they have the needed Satelitte equip from ccn)!
2. We have found we may offer tickets for less than we originally thought!
3. I recieved a call from a woman who needed food. (again remember Isaiah 58 and part of fasting is sharing our food with the hungry) She attended prayer meeting with us that night and not only recieved food but was HEALED of a condition that kept her unable to stand for long or walk very far (she had already told me she felt like people might think badly if she sat while others stood. I reasurred her it.) We prayed with her and she said "I feel weird. My legs feel weird" She was told to stand then walk. Honestley she began walking and walking and lifting her legs high over and over! Exclaiming how she couldn't do that before! Telling Jesus "You're the Man!" It was very cool!
4. And then overall some particular words from His word to me that were affirming and special...
And that was all just that day...
