Living a life that Matters

This is something I’ve been praying about. A few months ago I tried a fast. But I really didn’t keep up with it. In fact, I can’t even remember what it was that I fasted. Anyway, I’ve shut myself from the world the past few weeks to get myself back on track with God. Did a lot of reading. But I wanted something a little more. The Starving Jesus tour is coming to Cornerstone Thursday. I have been following the two men on the tour and the impact they are making on churches through their website. They are challenging church members to get off their butts and do something for Christ. This is where I am at. Putting my faith into action. I know I have a gift of service. I put a lot of my time into my church. Tomorrow I am going with my church to Libery House to do volunteer work. This is ironic because tomorrow would have been my 10 year wedding anniversary. What an awesome thing to do something awesome for Christ on what may be a difficult day for me. I have also started a 40 day fast. I decided to fast from red meat. And this time I am letting people know to keep me accountable. I will be doing it during the duration of the Starving Jesus 40 day tour. I will be challenged most when I go to Boston because I am all about food when I go there. I look forward to this being a time of drawing near to God. He has been so awesome to me!
