24 more hours to go!

Well this week was our week of prayer and fasting here at the church we were seeking God through prayer and fasting to see new levels of breakthrough! I have always taken part in this week by fasting media, fasting Starbucks, different meals or snacks for a week. Things that were hard but I'm not sure that they stretched me as much as this week has. I am day 5 of my 5 day fast and it has been a very interesting and fantastic experience. I have never fasted more than 30 hours before so this has been an interesting week. Although I have been drinking juice not just water, it has been tough. I was told, that day 3 was the hardest but I really thought that yesterday (day 4) was the hardest. Anyway, it has been a really cool experience for me, I'm so excited that I've accomplished what I had set out to do. God has done so much this week and do I know for sure if it was because of my obedience, no..... but I wouldn't want to chance that it wasn't!

What God has shown me this week:
-Awesome corporate prayer times with people from every generation really encouraged me and stretched me to push harder in my prayer and set a good influence to those younger who are still learning.
-Great devotional times, new light to scriptures.
-Youth kick off ----- WOW WOW WOW, worship awesome, offerings blown away, new students, students returning, leaders engaged and excited! It was fantastic!
- that my snacks, frufru drinks at Starbucks and meals are not the most important thing, God truly is my source and that is most important!
It has been as awesome week, thank you Lord that your word declares the breakthrough that has happened this week, seen and unseen! I thank you Lord for all you are and all you do!

oh by the way... 6 more sleeps till mom and dad get home! WAHOO!
