So I am sure you are like what? Why? Are you absolutely crazy? Well yes, kinda. Lol. A very good friend of mine has recently started a North Georgia chapter of Women of Vision and while only five of us are meeting currently we have big hopes for more to come and be a part of what God is calling each of us to do.... love and serve. So our hopes for the next ten days will be to fast something that we each have personally chosen as well as to pray for ten more team members. Our prayer: ten more, ten strong.
I have chosen this particular challenge, because Pat and I are leading a team to Honduras in June and I think it is important to prepare not only mentally but spiritually as well. The food items that I have chosen are rice, pinto beans, avocado, bananas, tortillas, eggs and chicken. I will only drink water. My intentions were to choose ten items and I could only think of seven...until I realized that salsa is pretty key. I know it seems like a cheating thing, but I will limit this as well. My goal is not really to see if I can eat this and survive because let's face it... I think I will due just fine. But my goal is to remember those with less and draw closer to Christ. To remember that everything I consume is because he has given it to me.
I have attached a picture of Pat helping me prepare my meals for tomorrow. He is actually doing this with me. So much preparation....ugh. I do not prepare anything ahead of time...ever!!!
