My first fasting experience
1/6/09
Today went pretty well. Not as good as the past few days, but not bad either. Work was alright. I got blessed at lunchtime. A couple of weeks ago I had given $70.00 dollars for tithe and I put $100.00 in the bank. Well, I needed gas money today and I knew that I had a little bit of money in the bank, but I had forgot about the $100.00 that I had put in two weeks ago. Turns out I had plenty of Gas money and then some. What a blessing! I went to my friends parents house after work. I had a really good time. It feels so good to have friends who believe in God just like I do. On the way home I felt the need to pull over and take communion. I had neglected the Lord for long enough. I did it in rememerance of him and then told him I was sorry for neglecting him. Its so hard to focus on just God when I have a million different things going thru my head. I know that is no excuse, but its the truth. I have definatly learned that I was not spending near as much time as I should have been with the Lord. When I finally got home I had a long talk with my mom. It didnt go so well. I keep telling her about all the new things Im learning and I guess she feels like she can never be good enough for me or anybody else. It made me want to cry that she feels so badly about herself. But it was only a week ago that I was telling myself how much I hated me. And now look what the Lord has done! I know that the Lord would bless her if she would just open her heart to him. She is just hurting, but I will pray for her and I havent lost hope even if she has! These little journal entry things just keep getting shorter and shorer!HAHA. Well Im off to read my bible and then its bedtime for me!
