I had gotten to day 5 of my first-ever fast (juice fasting) yesterday. But I permitted myself to be tempted the evening before and then again last night..... after feeling very weak and empty, I ate supper with my children. It is not a gross sin, nor am I condemned for it. However, I now have very clear set goals I wish to achieve through a juice fast of at least 14 days and maybe longer. I am starting anew and afresh today, as day one.
I am now praying for God's power and control over my cravings and urges and for HIS strength and grace to carry me through. I will definitely be relying more on His strength and less on my own ability. I am also intending to dedicate more of my daily time to prayer, meditation and communion with my LORD and Saviour. Please be in prayer for my journey.... it will be a difficult one. I will post more later as a journal to my first day of juice fast. Here I go to make some fresh juice!
