Fasting

This morning, I sat down and talking to my mom about my new job with RUF. She and I both expressed concern over my support coming in, and I revealed that I really haven't been seeking the Lord as much as I should on things, nor have I been spending hours in prayer about this internship. She also mentioned fasting, and I realized I've never really done that before. I've given up a meal here and there to pray instead of eat, but never truly fasted. So, having said that, I think I'm going to try to fast once a week. (If anyone out there wants to keep me accountable, I'd love it — you don't have to fast with me!) I need to set a specific day of the week to do it...but for now, it's TBA.

Please do pray that I'll trust the Lord in all of this and really seek His face. Pray that I'll be wise and intentional with my time this summer. Pray that I'll fight discouragement and rest in what He provides. Above all, pray that He will make His way known to me, and that I'll accept it with a ready and willing spirit. Thank you for your prayers and support!

Hey! Praying for you. My parents often fast after Sunday lunch for 24 hours I think; they have prayer time on Sunday evenings. I will be glad to help you stay accountable and would consider doing it with you - just let me know when you decide to do it. :)
