Time to Fast


So I was doing my daily reading in my Bible today....for those who don't know I have a devotional book called "One Year Through the Bible" that I read everday, and along with the daily devotional, it has a Bible reading along with it, and so by reading every day, by December 31st, I will have read thru the entire Bible.... hooray!


Anyhooo, I was reading today and I said to myself, maybe I can find some scripture that will help with things that we're going thru now (where's money gonna come from, what should we do about moving back to Radford, etc.) Well as I was flipping thru my Bible, I came across a bulletin insert from last year (or this year maybe) that talked about fasting..... and it kinda hit me, this is something I need to be doing on a weekly basis.


Now fasting isn't necessarliy just going without food, but can also be giving up something else in your life. So since I can't really go without food for a whole day (wanna talk about a migraine?) then I've decided to give up my computer, TV and Wii time one day a week. So starting tomorrow, you'll no longer be getting e-mails, comments, or blog updates for me. I'm gonna take the time that I would normally be doing those other things and spend it praying, reading my Bible, and getting out to enjoy all that God has created....
