AT THE CROSS

As the 21 day fast comes to an end I find myself at the Cross.

It has been a ride. . . . praising the Lord in the kitchen after a friend shares a new recipe that has flavor:) I usually smell like garlic!! To failing in a Thunder storm as I lick the beaters after making "chocolate" Thunder Cake with Joel and Ana. For those of you that are restraining yourself from chocolate - it is not as delicious when you cheat - STAY STRONG!

I am very thankful to have community in fasting!! It has been helpful to process all the questions and a blessing that we can share with eachother. When the first few days were behind me the Lord called me to surrender more than food and it became a very intimate journey that I could only travel with HIM. Surrendering guilt for how I fasted was the first followed by many others.

Wanting to end strong Tonight and weary of chopping vegetables I decided to check the blog finding the song Joy posted "At the Cross". Whether you were led to fast or not I pray this day you will take the time to play "At The Cross" remembering how much Jesus loves YOU!!!
Love and Prayers, Lissa
