I've had an awesome day!
I've never really experienced the calm and refreshment of fasting and prayer. Until today. Today has become a holy day. I think I understand better now what it might mean to keep the Sabbath holy. It's a sweet time with God. Just reading His word and talking about things with Him. I feel so peaceful and so confident in Him.
There were others fasting and praying as well. A whole community of them. It felt like a smooth stream of water, the oars slipping in, water dripping off the end, and moving us forward. Today we saw our prayers answered. We are all in God's care. We are all very concerned and worried about the same thing. There is Strength. Almost palatable.
Why don't I do this more often? Do I really think that I can solve the most of life without actually stepping out and taking this kind of time with God? I loved it. I cherish it. He has given me great joy.
The Lord is good. His love is always there for us. His friendship is ultimately the most beloved treasure a person can experiance.
I've had an awesome day!
