Daniel Fast #day1

So today was the start of my fast and as I have NEVER fasted before I really feel like this may be a bit of a struggle for me at first. But I believe that as the weeks go by I will be able to handle it better, after all it's only day 1.

After church the young adults went out for dinner at a cafe and it was so hard for me to just sit there and socialize and NOT eat anything. The only thing I had was some Apple Juice. But I had a few friends that were being JERKS and were teasing me with their wedges and pizza.

When I got home I just went straight to bed, so I didn't eat anything because I can never find myself to eat before I sleep.
It probably was a bit of a silly move not eating last night. But I will quickly learn what to and what not to do.

Month of Prayer and Fasting

Hey everyone. I know I haven't posted a blog in a while but my life has been a little bit CRAZY lately!!!

So I thought that I would blog about my churches prayer and fasting month; Every year in the month of August my church has a month where they fast something and pray pray pray. This year our focus is on relationships. It can be any type of relationship. Our relationship with God, family, friends. Whatever our maim reasons are for fasting we have to make sure that we keep on praying for the whole month which we are fasting.

This year is my first ever year of fasting and in my house we are doing the Daniel Fast. So our fast is pretty much a Vegan diet. We can only really eat fruit and vegetables.  We can eat things like nuts too. And every few days we a taking a break and eating some bread, rice and pasta. This is going to be a massive challenge for me as I never ever eat healthy. But as long as I pray for God to help me out I should be fine.

Another thing which we are fasting at church is some sort of entertainment. I have chosen to fast facebook which will be a MASSIVE MASSIVE challenge for me. But I have instagram and my blog to keep me off FB.

This month will be an interesting one for all of us, especially me. I can't wait to see God move in the church and in everyone's lives. It's going to be great :)
