It’s Monday, and that means that we’ve successfully made it to the 2nd week of our Daniel Fast. Sarah-Irene and I are feeling great, and even riding bikes every night (we’re up to 5 miles after 2 days). Sid has lost almost 7 pounds and I have lot a little over 12 pounds. We’re loving what we’re eating, and we have even been able to share the message of the fast to a few people. I won’t lie, we put the fast on hold for 2 meals, but even then, we jumped right back into it, and we continued to lose weight and the reason we put it on hold, was to minister to someone over a meal. Not, exactly as the fast dictates, but we believe that God will honor what we did.
But the real reason we’re doing the fast is to grow closer to God. And I believe that we are. We focus more on His will, and what He wants for us. It’s really amazing to see what God is doing in our lives. I have had some amazing spiritual conversations with some very key people, it’s just been awesome.
This week is the last week, and we are already looking forward to what God is going to do. Please pray that we stay focused and don’t lose it right at the last minute!
