10 day challenge
So yesterday I began a personal challenge to myself, to fast something different for ten days in an effort to draw near to God and evaluate the importance of the things I am fasting from. Day 1 was social internet, meaning no facebook or twitter. I found out that those things hold very little weight and that it was really no challenge at all to stay away from but when temptation came I didn't do anything just ignored it...this defeats purpose number one of this challenge and so today I will be fasting from social internet again as well as my day two challenge.
Day two's challenge is abstaining from all food and only drinking water. A true traditional fast.
I don't want anyone to think that I wrote this to boast of myself in any way but to boast of the Lord and what he is doing in me. Also I am writing these blogs as a personal accountability. A way to hold myself to my word.
If anyone is wanting to join me on any or all of the days please let me know either by text or comment. If you are reading this on facebook, it automatically posts there when I blog. But text me if you are joining me on any of the days so I can be praying for you throughout my day. Well that's all for now.
