Hi everyone,
I thought we'd continue this blog during the fasting period just so that we can track some of our thoughts, our prayers, and maybe even some answers during this time, and also to encourage each other to keep going, and to help each other refocus when we struggle.
Just so that you guys can keep me accountable as your leader, here's some things I'm giving up for these few weeks:
- food other than fruits, vegetables, and liquids
- television other than the daily show and the colbert report *
- video games, flash games included **
I have a few other commitments I'm making, but these are some of the things I hope everyone will keep me accountable on. And I hope at the end of these 3 weeks, we'll be able to look back on some of our entries and see God at work.
Anyone and everyone is free to post, even things like new prayer requests for the group to pray for.
Blessings,
Josh
* I'm a staunch believer in keeping up with the news. My sources are the "Latest Headlines" tab in Firefox, and Comedy Central of all places. Also, please do not ruin shows for me by telling me what happened on House or Scrubs that week.
** I will make an exception if we play as a LIFE group with the intent of building relationships with others not in our group, but this is the ONLY exception.

ReplyDeletewould it be weird to ask that the prayer requests that we wrote down on those cards be put up on the blog? just so that people can know them and pray for others in case they can't make it to chapel time or morning prayer?
ReplyDeletebut i understand if some people don't want personal prayer requests posted on a public blog. just asking~~
