40 Day Fast April 21 - May 30

Our home church, The Rock of Roseville, is having a church wide 40 Day Fast. My first thought was, oh boy God is going to challenge me. It is going to stretch me and I know it. To be honest though, I am so excited about it though. I seriously am excited and have been counting down to start the 40 Day Fast for almost two weeks. This is not the normal thing for me to do or the normal way I would act about a fast.
God has called me to fast profanity, anger and negativity. I will be fasting negative attitude, thoughts and language. I will be fasting soda as well. The most challenging part is the focusing on Joy and the Positive which will be in my attitude, thoughts and language. I will also be doing a 40 day study on the book of James. It is really neat for me to see it laid out like this. God is taking care of my emotional, mental and physical parts of my life. God is basically cleansing me through these next 40 days.

Our church also has a House of Prayer, the Rock House of Prayer (RHOP), so they are going to be open 24/7 for the next 40 days for the fast. I have signed up to be there 3 hours a week but Christina and I will be signing up for some to do together. This morning was my first hour and it has shown me there is much in store for me. Looking forward to the next 40 days!
