Fast so you can feast.
This was a new thought that I was able to hear this weekend from David Nasser. I was the leader at 'Quest' (DNOW weekend). So I decided to fast from facebook. So far I haven't had that many withdraws. Aly is checking it for me so I can know if there is an event or important message.. (So no secrets in a facebook message that you don't want Aly to see!)
This weekend was amazing - I really think it was meant that I go for me to grow. I learned so much from the speakers, staff and other college leaders. I was the leader for a group of energetic 7th grade girls. They were fabulous.
I can't wait for Spring Break. I get to spend it with some fabulous people serving international students on campus. It is going to be great! Another thing is that on Friday I am going home to spend some time with friends and my wonderful family!
I wish that I had something profound to say - but I think it's the withdraw of facebook setting in... just kidding. I am fasting from facebook so I can focus on God's word and study. That way 40 days from now I will be feasting on the Truth :)
And when I say that I am fasting from it.. I know that sounds like I am trying to let everyone know.. but.. I am not complaining.. just letting those know who might need to contact me. I am so excited about all that I am going to learn in those hours that I usually waste time!
So this is not me being self-righteous.. or whatever. Just to let you know :)
