This weekend has been and will continue to be a very eventful, action-packed, and also high intensity weekend. So high that I won't be able to discuss everything that happened. Last night I had a very weird dream. I dreamt that I was looking at the verse Matthew 5:34-35, which says "But I say to you, do not swear at all: neither by heaven, for it is God's throne; nor by the earth, for it is His footstool; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King." Now I do not know what that means, or if it was just a dream. Then I dreamt that the words "The Lord is sufficient for you" written on a piece of paper, in a verse form, on the kind of bible paper.
Recently I've been praying about an issue close to my heart, and I am just amazed at the way God works. Philippians 4:6-7 "Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus." The issues close to my heart really need answers.
At OCF this weekend, one of the topics brought up was that of fasting. Today people fast of msn, people fast of television, but I can't help but think people are starting to lose the meaning of fasting. But that's not what I'm concerned with now. While that topic was being deliberated I suddenly felt something tugging at my heart telling me that I should fast. Therefore I shall fast next week, praying and listening, waiting for God to give me the answers to the issues close to my heart.
