I fasted for the month of Feb. Probably started on the 2nd or 3rd of February and ended yesterday. I thought I could never achieve that. But I did. And am I happy that I did!
It’s been interesting. It’s not so much the answered prayers, but the change that happened within me. The peace, faith, control, JOY, love for all humans, overwhelming love for God. This change that takes place within is the greatest miracle of all.
There are people that I’ve thought in the past were sent to test my patience. One such one was at it again last week. Though upset, I was able to follow peace…and achieve it. The outcome? A change has come over him as a result. Now we’re both following peace with each other, and I can see his strengths now. Which I had been blind to for so long. By focusing on these strengths and his good side, it’s now easy to follow peace with him. I feel happier, indeed blessed, free, and glad in my spirit.
“If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men. 19 Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord. 20 Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. 21 Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.” …Romans 12: 18-21
