Fasting...Friends..Favor...

so...a group of my most awesom-est friends and i have decided to fast for 30 days. #goodshit (i really need to "fast cursing" but ah, welp) anyway, we are all fasting different things for different reasons with the common goal of cultivating spiritual growth. not only do i feel that this is bringing myself and others closer to God (or whomever each individual believes in), but it is also bringing us closer to each other. #goodshitagain

we encourage and lift up one another daily...i think this has also allowed us to encourage and lift up others in our day to day lives. i've found myself connecting, conversing, and bonding with more and more people from all kinds of backgrounds and thats a great feeling. for a large portion of my life, i had a very "select" group of friends that i actually would call friends. (i had alot of skepticism, materialism, and emotional walls up against people in general.) but now i feel myself more able to branch out, connect with, and form friendships with many people. that's a good feeling. #ILOVEMYFRIENDS

before...in the midst of...and, i'm sure, after this fast, i've seen (will see) my friends (and myself) being so blessed. (jobs, money, opportunities) i attribute it all to God of course, but i also know that he sends his blessings for reasons. we are favored by Him! we must be doing something right! we gotta keep it up...

#scripture Mark 3:5>>> Jesus said to the man with the shriveled hand, "Stand up in front of everyone. He said to him, "Stretch out your hand!" And he did so; and his hand was restored.

#prayer Lord, allow me to stand up and stretch out my hand...already believing that you will heal, bless, and comfort me...because You are God, and I am Favored...
