Fasting, Day 26 (Friday)

Home > Pastor's Blog > Fasting, Day 26 (Friday)

Have you lost sight of the reason for your fast? Have you felt like fasting the meal, but not really praying like you should?

I just had a conversation via Face Book chat with a person who used to come to church. They are not right with God. I reminded them that the Lord loved them and was patient with us because of His love. They said they weren’t ready to come back yet. I asked what it would take to get ready. They said they weren’t sure. They also said that they wanted to come back to God but was afraid they would let Him down again. I told them to not think about failing, but to think about being victorious. Paul said “I can do all things through Christ who gives me the strength”. When I finished the chat, I was reminded all over again why we are fasting. It’s for people like that who need a reason to give God another try.

Keep on fasting. I truly believe that our loved ones are coming home!!!! It’s just a matter of time!
