Fasting, Day 3

I struggled more with my fasting today than I did yesterday. I found myself taking small pieces of candy, putting them in my mouth, tasting them, and spitting them out so I wouldn't "actually" eat them. I know that I really shouldln't be temping myself like this, but I'm really missing sweets. Oddly enough, I'm not missing meat as much, but that is subject to change if I find myself in restaurants in the near future. During my fast, I am praying for three things in my life:

1. My future wife.
2. Career Direction
3. Be a better Christian

I hope I'm able to stay strong during this fast. I was going to church with a friend tomorrow, but those plans have fallen through, so I will be attending Riverside.

  1. Stay with it Dan. I am proud of you for doing this and will pray that you are blessed by it. As a person who has had struggles too, I wish I could give you an easy answer or point to the certain path. However, it just isn't that simple. I can say though, that my answer and ultimate comfort and peace have always come from God. I am glad you are looking there too. - JFA
