Happy Sunday friends, hope everyone enjoyed the weekend!
I’ve been under the weather with a respiratory infection and it has taken all the life out of me!🥺😷
I’m feeling a bit better today as I get ready for worship this morning!
Our church has decided to commit to the Daniels Fast for the next 21 days and I have decided to join in!
There are so many reasons why I feel I need to get closer to God!
Have any of you fasted before?
Did you do it alone or with a church?
I have fasted for Lent but never like this before so wish me luck!☺️
In the meantime, as I was researching this fast I came across some of the benefits that may help me as well:
