I’ve been feeling completely challenged. So many things are happening and requiring focus and attention. I have my neck outstretched in earnest anticipation expecting God to do some amazing things within and through me, my family, and with community of Vivid Church.
But I also feel sorta stuck. Like somehow someone accidentally kicked the gear shift into park. And I honestly don’t know exactly how it happened. But I know that I refuse to continue in it.
And I’ve questioned myself as to the cause. Did I do something that has moved me into a holding pattern and away from the flow of God? Is there something attempting to hold me back? Does moving forward simply require a higher level of consecration and dedication?
Regardless of the cause, there is a single answer. Fast.
If I’ve mistakenly moved, a time of fasting provides for honesty before God allowing humility and restoration. If there is spiritual warfare, fasting works to break down strongholds.
So, why share this? As I said, I’m expecting some major things from God. And I thought it would be fun to let you in on the journey rather than having me come back in a few weeks and try to recapture everything.
Also, I want to encourage you to join me if you are feeling stuck. Let’s spend some time away from feeding our stomachs and getting before God.
I want to know about your journey. We can travel together.
