Well my first fasting went well. Not only did I manage to make the full 12 hours, but it brought me closer to the Lord. I felt his joy with me as I was tempted and suffering. I rejoiced in knowing him a little better.
It was tough as first, and I reached out in a message to the team...which helped heaps - knowing I was not doing it alone. But I also focused on the Lord. I asked for strength and guidance. I praised him for allowing me to do this.
It was a great day. It reminded me of so many things. That was the best bit. I was reminded of being with the Lord so many times. I went about my day - where I would normally be distracted from thinking about the Lord. Yet on this day I was reminded of him so often - due to my fasting.
I can't wait for the next day!
