Hungry physically, but hungrier spiritually (Day 3)

Interestingly (unlike the previous experiences), this time I have started to have some craving for food on Day 3. Most of the day, I've been thinking about food. Perhaps that is the need of the body, because in the last couple of days, it has already lost some 3 kgs of weight.

Thankfully, the "urge" of the body and the craving for food reminds me what I'm doing and why I'm doing it - a hunger and desire for God. That has actually been helping me stay focus. Whenever I'm hungry, I pray, "Lord, I'm hungrier for you!"

Another noticeable change in my heart is the spirit of prayer in me. I've followed closely the church prayer bulletin in the last few evenings. To my amazement, my mouth (& my spirit) just prays fervently like never before and I have enjoyed praying!!! That is amazing. Wow, I want more of this, Lord!

Shall I take this opportunity to encourage those who are on the same journey, that you are not alone, and I want to remind myself that I'm not alone either. Let's remember one another in prayer, ok?
