Why Fast?

This morning marked my second day of fasting. I woke up this morning excitedly thinking about what I wanted to eat for breakfast, only to remember that I would have to wait until dinner to have something to sustain me (I am doing a one meal a day fast). But, as the day has gone on, I have found the desire for food has not been as strong as I thought it would. My body is actually sorta starting to enjoying itself, just 3 more days to go! This fast comes as I set out to make some important life/school decisions in the next week. Hopefully I will hear a clear word from God on all the matters that I am needing guidance on. My continued prayer this week is that God will be my sustenance in this time, and that as I seek out His will, I will also grow in my faith.

In food related news, the other night I made Greek bread! I will have to put up some pictures of my loaves soon, I was so proud of myself that they turned out ok. Next I want to make "beer bread" where you use beer instead of yeast! **Alex, you might just be coming to live at a house filled with fresh baked goods allllllll the time. I hope thats ok with you.
