I have never done anything like that before (aside from sick days. Ha). It was cool to know that others were doing it too, for a great reason. Didn't do too bad. I had tomato juice that seemed to fill me up. I figured that might be right on the line of fasting. I didn't know if there were any rules. Also drank diet coke, coffee & water, not nec. in that order. I looked at the One prayer site and read some things there and prayed a little. There were many touching comments on there. Someone named Scott posted about his friend TJ, when he drinks he feels a presence in his room or somethink like that. That reminded me of something one of my small group friends had told me about when she was growing up. She said the Lords Prayer helped her. I really wanted to snack on something around 9:30/10pm, when I usually get the munchies. I wish I had used more time to pray. Funny how it seems work or tv gets in the way. : ). Hmm maybe tv would be good non-food item to give up. Or gas. I am so blessed to find a church with such caring people. Hi Grace Folks, I fasted yesterday.
