Eating My Words

I love nights like tonight. I made it to bed before midnight. The sun is still setting, and I'm laying here watching Dateline, and I'll probably begin to doze off as soon as I close the laptop. I couldn't do this every night because I'm a night owl, but I like doing it every now and then. It makes me feel like I'm taking charge of my sleep deprivation, and I also feel like I'm preparing to have an awesome day ahead. Here's to hoping anyway! :)

That's not really the point of this blog though. Since last night at midnight, I've been on a food fast. I haven't eaten anything. I've drank lots of water. Surprisingly, it hasn't been so bad. Maybe I can ignore what's on my heart, but I can't ignore God when a growling stomach and a severe hunger headache are reminding me that I have been called to witness to my lost friends and family members.

Uh...I'm not sure that made sense in writing. Anyway, I guess the reason I'm writing this is to ask you to join me in prayer. Even though I am hungry, please pray that God will use this experience to make me a more disciplined Christian and that He will give me the words and timing to speak to the lost people I'm fasting for this week. If you're reading this and have lost people in your own life, I pray that God will bless you with the same thing.

Anyway, I'm gonna stick to my word about getting to bed early. I'll talk more about the experience when it's over. Hopefully I'll get to sleep tonight before hunger sets in again!! :)

'Night guys!! :)
