#moderndayfasting

i am writing this - a day from where my monthly cycle happens as a woman. I noted this because this affects how I think, feel and reflect.

Here I am in a space where I can share what the Spirit is teaching me on ‘fasting.’

Being kept at home means that we are not as influenced by external affairs, pressures... where do we go? retreat? 

to our breath

to our mind, thoughts (yes, if you practice this, you can hear revelations)

to our heart - this tugging, longing, yearning

I am keeping myself accountable here.

I deactivated my Facebook account (let’s see how I go for a month) #Facebookfast

The next fast on my list is going away from my guilty pleasure - chocolate.

. . .as I am writing this, I am singing Hillsong’s New Wine and Bethel’s Goodness of God... no matter how I feel, the condition of my sick and selfish heart, I can always return to goodness in a faith that I can’t see but know that all of me, all of what I have is from the Creator.

. . .

I wanted to see where I go, what I do, how I spend my time by not scrolling on Facebook or getting the fleeting adrenaline from my notifications.

I’m hoping I can listen to more worship songs, read more spiritual articles, videos, prophetic messages and continue to repent and renew my spirit as I embark on the next venture of God’s will.

. . .

I end with a written prayer for my fellow Christian friends to continue praying for our country, our humans, our friends and people who are lost and need the light.

Continue to use us as the light to the world.

I don’t have much left of me anymore. 

I rely on God’s spirit now.

In time and place again,
