The Daniel Fast...

This is day one of the 21-day Daniel Fast we are doing through our church. The Daniel Fast basically means cutting out all animal products such as meat and dairy as well as all sugar, caffeine, and yeast. I know what you are thinking, but I am rather excited about it! I spent a few hours yesterday preparing stews and soups that I can have on the fast. It will be so much easier to concentrate on the real meaning of the fast if I have some things made ahead of time!

That brings me to the real meaning of the fast...our church (CrossRoads Community Church of the Nazarene) is in great need of direction, God's direction! We are spending this 21 days praying and seeking God's wisdom, insight, and direction for the church as a whole.
