This is Day 9 of my 25 day fast. I had a slight relapse on Day 6 & 7 when I decided to have spinach pizza both days. While this is not necessarily a big issue, I was trying to stick to a no bread regime as well. I also told a few close friends that I was fasting for moral support. I hope that God knows my heart and realizes that this fast has been challenging to me. I realize that is not a justification for sharing the news and hope that does not violate my covenant with God. I am finding it easier to go without television though this is my second attempt at going without it for 7 days. I miss the news but have been reading news stories on the Internet. I did not realize my addiction to television programs and the local/world news ran so deep! Fifteen years ago, I barely watched tv. Now, it has become an entertaining part of my life.
I am still listening for the voice of God. I hope to hear it by the time the fast is over. I am proud of my daily Bible reading but need to spend more time worshipping, praising, and praying. In the meantime, I thank God for His mercy, grace, and forgiveness!
