It has always amazed me that we shy away from the very things that can help us such as fasting.

In nature, when wild animals are sick they don't eat—it seems like when we are not feeling well spiritually we tend to eat more.

Skipping a few meals now and then not only can help our God perspective but is also good for our bodies as well.

Thanks for stopping by.

It sure is a lot of fun to share words with friends. Like iron sharpens iron, friends act as a balance for one another.

Thanks for the encouraging words. I haven't been to deep into your journey (jimazing.com/blog) but it sounds like we'd have a lot to talk about if we were met and take a long walk together.

I, too, have some of the same feelings concerning fasting, but when I have done it, I usually find the benefit for me is not a feeling of "superspirituality" but of a desperate need for more of Him.
Thanks for your words.

Great analogy there with the bike-riding and balance. And a great view of fasting.

I'm totally with you on the frustration when someone else decides that it's time for me to fast! ;)

Your honesty... your journey... your questions make me wish I were your friend. If you are anything like me, you will find that each layer of the onion reveals more about who God created you to be. Some layers will be more pleasant than others.

As you uncover Terry Henry, you will find an effectiveness that you have never known. You will find a unique expression of God because He only made one you. To me, it is like finding me and finding God at the same time. Not that I am God, but the process of living out that unique expression of God is a peeling away of the hurts, habits and hangups that keep me from Him.

Keep asking the questions and pushing back the darkness. In my experience, they frequently do not lead to happiness, but they do lead to a deeper fulfillment. I'm along for the ride... oh wait, that's the other blog :)

I am just a guy who is processing his life sort of out loud and beginning to re-discover what it was I originally saw in the church and Christianity.

I the past couple of weeks I have traveled many miles to see a friend who was a part of a Derek Prince foundation series class I taught many years ago become a pastor in a little Methodist church in the middle of almost nowhere—led an Emmaus gathering in praise and worship—worshipped with another church group and biked miles and miles with a friend.

Glad you stopped by and let me know what you think of the book.

Check out lookingforthelongride as well if you already haven't.

Don't know who you are or how I ran across your "blogg" but I find it extremely interesting. So much so that I am going out this evening and look for the book "Blue Lake Jazz"

Clarity is all around and a confidance building that heretofore has not been available or has just been out of reach. This one will be won. Thanks for the support.
