Time to Stop and Think

Well, it's day 3 of something me and my husband have decided to start.

For 40 days we are fasting and praying to see change happen in our lives, the lives of those we love and care about most, and the world around us.
Now before you start telling me we're absolutely insane, and that not eating for 40 days is stupid, that's not quite how it's going to work!
Believe me, I love food far too much to give it up completely for 40 days, for one day is hard enough!
We will be fasting in daylight, so before the sun rises in the morning and after it sets we will be eating, but during the day we won't. But also to try and be healthier and take care of our bodies better, we are going to be eating healthy, natural foods when we do eat.

We're going to be praying for 3 specific things:

• Us - our marriage, our personal walks with God, specific things for each other and our relationship together.
• Our families and friends - to bring before God the needs of those we love and care about most.
• Our ministry - we are both passionate about reaching the lost students in our community and training those who know Christ to reach their friends, and dedicate our days to doing that, so we are praying we will see amazing changes in the lives of students around us.

I'm excited that it will be a great time to see God move mightily through the situations we are bringing to Him. I really believe God sees the sacrifices we make when we feel passionate about the things in our lives.

I'll keep you updated on how it goes!!
