Daniel Fast

February 6 - 27, 2012

Welcome to our Daniel Fast

Prayer Requests, Testimonies, Scriptures and more...

Prayer Requests:

"Someone requested prayer to be able to embrace the Spiritual aspect of the Fast. It's a challenge for me to fit in regular, quiet, devotion time.  And this is the main reason I chose to participate"...May they feel God's love and grace as opportunities open up daily for them to experience intimacy with the Father.

 

Testimonies:

Hello All!
We have one week down! Way to go, guys! We had a meal tonight that seemed closer to normal. It was nice to have something familiar. And it was nice to have it on Valentine's Day. We had baked potatoes with Crazy Jane's salt (which was good, considering I never thought I could eat a baked potato without butter), Tahini Wild Rice Cakes (the recipe is on Ultimate Daniel Fast website, and was really good) and a salad with dressing that I finally found that was good and within the guidelines.
There might not have been much protein but I vowed that we wouldn't eat any beans tonight. I was getting a little tired of beans! :) It is just interesting how eating something normal can make you feel normal. I think that has been the hardest part for me so far. I have been buying, preparing and eating things that I don't normally eat. It is good to step out of your comfort zone, but it is even nicer to back to your comfort zone. :) I can tell so far this week has been going better than last week. I just wanted to encourage you all to keep on keeping on. I think about you all and pray for you all.
Happy Valentine's Day! - L ~
