Day Four

…but whose delight is in the law of the LORD, and who meditates on his law day and night. That person is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither—whatever they do prospers. Psalms 1:2-3 NIV – but whose delight is in the law of the – [...]

Day Three

It is day three of the Daniel Easter Fast; I’m still hanging in there, and am completing chapters and tests for ministry school. The fast has helped me focus more on what is important–time with God, in prayer and in His word. Yesterday, on day two, I had a rough day. My tummy wasn’t happy, [...]
