Week of Prayer and Fasting vol. 1...

I just got home from the first night of Prayer and Fasting at my home church, Horizon Christian Fellowship. Although I'm fasting from solid foods the entire week and I'm relying on water and other liquids such as juice to keep me going, I cannot stress enough how restored I feel at the moment.

Stepping outside of my comfort zone, I experienced the awesome power of prayer with my fellow brothers and sisters. I used to be so timid having to pray out loud amongst fellow Christians but now I feel that I've overcome that hurdle. Prayer is such an honor. To be able to speak to the Lord. Such a blessing it is. Please know, that all words you speak in prayer are heard by the Lord. Your words will not fall on deaf ears. Learn to have patience, and most assuredly, our Father will answer your prayers.

I should feel completely weak right now without having to eat anything solid. I can say that physically, I feel weak in the legs and lightheaded. But after praying tonight, I feel so rejuvenated with strength spiritually that it's getting me passed the physical trial that I'm currently experiencing.

I am very excited for the rest of this week. Tomorrow are the elections, so please be sure to vote. Please vote based on your values and not based on your party or heresay from what others may tell you. With the power of prayer, hopefully the way of the Lord will go as planned.

God Bless.
