Fasting - a changing experience when done for the Lord God

Fasting XD i'm only on my 2nd day of fasting, and i now i realise how much i take for granted considering food. I have put myself on a partial fast for 3 days only allowing myself plain chiken soup with no solids and water.

Yesterday i had many cups of water and 2 bowls of soup. Today however i feel realli different after last night, after affirming my faith with a few articles i read here that day b4.

I do not feel tired =D haha.. i still feel hungry... but lol i feel energetic HAHA XD.. its rather strange >=) LOL. THX YOU FATHER GOD XD FOR GIVING ME THE STRENGHT TO CONTINUE ON XD. Today i plan to just go with water. Continue reading articles from this site, continue reading the Bible an sing with my heart along to some Hillsong cd's XD to praise n worship Him.

I now realise the importance of saying grace before eating LOL. I REALLY THANKED HIM FOR THE ONLY SORTA FOOD I HAD LAST NIGHT WHICH WAS SOUP. Haha and He's healing me >=) ! B4 i fasted i never realli enjoied eatin that much, after having one severe case of stomach upset about almost a year ago caused by alcoholic binging ( which i refrain from now )... but now.. LOL i can't wait to get my first bite of fruit >=) LOL I WANT A MANGO !! OR AN APPLE LOL! Haha and can't wait to eat what mum prepares for food XD. But that'll have to wait till Sunday morning >< LOL.

I do feel closer to the Lord an excited lol, this is a new experience and its going so well. LoL i've suffered a little >=) ! I saw a packet of lollies out on the table last nite n i was sooooooooooooooo wanting to eat just one ! LOL. Haha and the smell of toast in the morning OH GOSH >< LOL YUMMMMMMMM ! >< but i've succesfulli refrained from eating lol. Haha last nights dinner D= smelt soooo nice LOL.. but i just had the soup =( LOL.

I had a dream last night too... where i was searching for things to eat, and came across like what was suppose to be containers full of pasta in my fridge. I was hungrily searching through each container n found it was empty.. finally i found a pot that had some pasta in it but to no avail it was old... and off ><.. and mum told me not to eat it LOL. Then i suddenly remembered i was on a fast >=) ! LOL n in a way i was glad i had found nothing to eat in that fridge LOL. Haha i'm glad even in my sleep the Lord reminds me NO FOOD your fasting ! XD LOL.

Haha and for the new believers i realli realli suggest u give fasting a shot ! LOL it realli makes u appreciate the food u eat, and appreciate who ever cooks the food, and most of all remember and appreciate God for creating the ingredients for the food we eat that being fruits and animals n grains n that XD.

Haha and wen u dedicate your time to reading and searching the Lord u certainly draw closer to him. I do miss playing my computer games though =( LOL... but i'm beginning to really enjoy this experience and will deffinately do it again in the near future even if it means no computer games for a while =( LOL.

BUT YES XD LOL THX MICHAEL HAHA XD your fasting chellenge and the article realli appealed to me, while i was readin the article b4 i began the fast, i got a lil teary, knowing that this was an experience i realli needed to have to draw closer to God. My fasting i must say is still a little imperfect but i plan to improve with each attempt. Its suppose to be a time of full dedication to the Lord, yet.. i still have MSN on >< just to keep me a little company.

God Bless, i hope that others who have accepted Christ and who have never fasted b4 give it a shot >=) LOL and hey it gives u something else to talk about to other Christian friends XD to me its a victory worth sharing if u complete a fast for the first time >=) ! haha

Goodbye =) ! !!
