I’ve got so much I could talk about from this week, like the things the Lord is/was teaching me this week were so good. However what has been the most highlighted this week is fasting. Let me just say I’ve never really understood fasting and always looked at it in some what of a condemning way. That’s probably why the Lord has put it on my heart so much. Anyway I’ve always seen fasting as just giving something up, turns out it is actually a way that connects us with our human brokenness and realizing our weakness where we need God. So yeah the Lord is our sustainer and redeemer and has given us fasting as a gift and way to humble ourselves when we get prideful, which for me is easy to do and especially in a season of leadership, so I’m very thankful for that.
God is good and is always teaching us new things and speaking to us ways in which he wants to draw us closer to him and make us more like Christ.
Also got the opportunity to pray for one of my teammates leg this week and see the Lord heal him and align his legs. Pretty amazing let me tell you. (Thanks God)
As always please feel free to email me anytime with any questions about the race or anything else. And if you feel lead to donate towards my fundraising goal that is also much appreciated and helpful!
Also here’s a couple pictures of what my living situation looks like.
