The New Year Is Here!


Well 2013 has arrived. I can hardly believe that another year has begun. While 2012 has had its good moments; I am so ready to put it in the past. It’s become a tradition in our house and our church to fast for 21 days at the beginning of the year. This year I decided I would fast soda, certain food items, and anything fried. After fasting this way today, I just felt it wasn’t good enough and so did God. God told me that I needed to try harder. So, tomorrow after work I will be heading to the store to stock up on fruits and vegetables to start my Daniel Fast on Friday. With this fast, I hope to start the year getting closer to God and seeking answers to my prayers. If you haven’t considered fasting for this New Year, then think about it. It doesn’t have to be much, it could be your favorite food, or TV, or Facebook, or one meal, the list can go on forever. Whatever it is that you choose to give up, make sure it’s a sacrifice, and use that time to spend with God.

Happy New Year!!!
