Today, I just stayed in really, done some washing, and other things about the house. My evening consisted of searching for more songs to listen during this 21 days.
Today I read Daniel 1
it was speaking about when Daniel, Meshach, Shadrach and Abed-Nego when through training to serve the king and he requested they only eat vegetables and water, this would have been for way more then 3 weeks. Imagine eating only vegetables and drinking only water for maybe even years? Wouldn't you be very tempted to give up? To go away from the commitment you made to God? During this fast there will be so many opportunities presented to you by the devil for you to break your fast and watch TV or listen to worldly music, to get caught up in unprofitable conversations etc. but I believe God will give you the strength you need to fulfil this vow, and not only fulfil but that by the end you will receive all you have been fighting for! so if you feel weak, that your about to fall into temptation, to deviate from your commitment, ask God for the strength to carry on, to pick you up and give you that push to keep going. All your efforts will not be in vain! May God be with you!
