The Call: 40 Day Fast - Day Three

Hebrews 12

v.5 So don't feel sorry for yourselves. Or have you forgotten how good parents treat children, and that God regards you as his children? My dear child, don't shrug off God's discipline, but don't be crushed by it either.

I will not give in to self-pity. I will not give in to fear. I will not feel sorry for myself. I'm on my third day of my fast. This is really hard. I've decided to fast from all food completely for 72 hours. I'm on hour 65 of this fast. What a ride this has been. Call me crazy, but when I'm this ridiculously hungry God's presence has a noticeable effect on my body. I'm mean there's a noticeable difference between working on computer stuff while slowly losing energy and digging into God's word and feeling encouraged. I dunno if that makes any sense, but it does to me. I've struggled with hunger for so long. I'm starting to see hunger from a different perspective. I can't put my finger on it, but it's there. I think I'll post again tonight when I pass the 72-hour mark!
