Day 4 of the 21 day fast: I'll have to admit, yesterday was a lot easier! My stomach was growling out of control in class today, and i feel weaker and more tired than ever. Although harder than day three, much easier than day two. I feel like even my mind is exhausted, finding it hard to focus on homework and intellecutal tasks. The meaning behind the fasting however is all about God and my intimacy with him. My worship toward him has been nothing less than incredible. I seem to connect with him instantly without any distractions whatsoever.
I was listening to a song titled, "Heaven come down" by Daniel Bashta, and as i was singing along, i began to beg God for him to bring Heaven down to us and invade the earth. His answer to me was, "I would, but there is no room for me." My eyes were opened. This world is so full of junk and irrelavent nothings. They clog up all available space leaving no room for the one who created it all. This put fasting into perspective for me. By eliminating food, (junk) from our bodies, we create room for the Lord in our spirit. If only everyone would create a little more room for our savior, this world would be awakend! Tonight i am going to watch the sunset on the beach, and worship quietly to the God who deserves everything we have.

Day 6

Isaiah 40:29-"He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak." God i pray that though my flesh cries out, you strengthen my inner spirit! Remind me Lord, that in my weakness, you are glorified!

Day 7

Nehemiah 8:10-...for the joy of the LORD is your strength!" Today i was once again filled up while worshiping. The Lord always pulls through at my weakest moments. Leaves me to question myself..."What am I hungry for? Is it food? Or am I hungry for God, for more of his word? That's the real bread of life!!
