What I learned from my 8 day fast

What I've learned from my 8 day fast...

I have fasted before and yes, I thought I had gotten something out of it but this time it was different this time I was doing this because I was so grateful for all God has done for me, I truly wanted to give something back, to listen, to become closer to him and for that reason it wasn't difficult for me this year. I learned that if you put your mind to something you can do it, just do it!

I learned I was able to shut off the TV, the radio, all the negative energy outside.That I could just eat vegetables and water and be full. I've learned to make the sacrifice of going to church every night because I needed to give back. I truly focused on God and on his peace and joy I feel in my life because of him. I learned that there are many meaningful lessons in the bible that apply to today's world.

I learned when you are a good person, good things will come to you, even if you must wait, God will always pay you back.

And I learned that I am not going to wear my problems in 2020.

I will not let people's perceptions of me stop me from my dreams, that I will continue to believe in the impossible because I have seen miracles, I have had his miracles in my life. I've learned to not make decisions when your hungry and worn out, when your under the gun. That you need to step back to wait and think about the answer, it will come to you.

Not to speak until you have time to calm down and see things from a different perspective.

 I learned not everyone that goes to church is honest and looking out for you. That one was a hard one for me as well as not everyone has your heart but it was a lesson well learned. I also learned God has your back and will turn things around for you and he placed some incredible people in my life to help me, people who have my back and yet again I am grateful for this. I've learned that this is your year of new beginnings, of the unbelievable, the year of uncommon blessings, this is your year to seize your God moment! But if you don't get it, it will only be your own fault as you didn't reach out and grab them.

One of the biggest lessons I've learned this fast while studying the bible is that I am like Daniel in the bible, I can most relate to him. He was an uncommon hero, he was poor, no one thought he could be anything but a shepard, no one believed he could be a king.

Even when he fought the giant and won, when no one thought he could do it, he still didn't get the recognition he deserved. He should have been a hero and had it all but instead the king tried to kill him multiple times after that. He was left to die in a hole by his brothers, he ran for years and lived in caves yet he never stopped believing in God's word.Even when years went by and everyone was against him, he still held on to God's word. I can relate as I've been knocked down, I've been betrayed by loved ones, I've been hurt and broken yet I still believe in God's word. He sometimes cried out and asked "when God when?" He believed but he was still human.and again I can relate, I think we all can relate to feeling like that. Yet when you keep reading you will see that God kept his word, God made him king, he gave him all he lost, he blessed him with favor even when he screwed up, God still forgave him.

I know that this gift he has given me is for others, that my test was for a testimony for others to see what God can and will do in your life and so I must go on, I must keep believing in God's word and so should you.

So today my friends, you have to see what is going to come before it comes. You have to believe in the impossible, you have to throw off your problems because if you see it, if you can believe it, it can be.

I am so grateful for being able to give back to him during this fast, this is my gift to him. I am grateful for the lessons I've learned during this time and hopefully the lessons I was able to share with you. You don't have to wait until the beginning of the year to do this, you can do it anytime, You can show God how grateful you are any day, anytime. Start today.
