First I want to thank all of you who are on this journey together. I am amazed at how many people are fasting and praying during this season of Lent. In addition to the health benefits, the spiritual benefits are many for each of us and for Cornerstone MCC.
The greatest gift for me so far has been tranquility. Without the caffeine, sugar, chemicals and meat, there is an increasing peace and it feels so good. The food we do get to eat is delicious and satisfying and I hope to continue eating healthy after the 21 day fast. As a matter of fact, there is a Daniel Diet that follows the fast.
In my time of devotion, the word that comes before me is self-control. By fasting we are exercising our self-control muscle and it is becoming stronger. And that feels great to me. So do not grow weary in your well doing. We are 1/3 of the way there.
Blessings, fruits, veggies, whole grains, nuts and water to all.
Rev Sandy
