I am a 45 year old Loan Officer/Youth Sunday School teacher. Sitting on the back row of church with the youth during Ash Wens Service, I felt compelled, or rather told to do a fast of solid food. I am overweight and always tell people that I love food. Maybe I love it too much, is what I think God is telling me. I am now on day 2 and am not sure how far I am being told to go. I am actually not having a problem with this fast like I thought I would. It seems like I’m being led. I say, “Lead me God and I will go!”. Thanks for all your stories and I have prayed for you all. God Bless you all.
I pray that you have kept on this journey. If you have then you are almost there! If not start over and pray for guidance. You can do it.
