Dear God, 4 days into the fast and you are already beginning to work on my heart. I am working hard on developing my relationship with you because I want to understand you more. I know that it's impossible to understand all of who you are, but if I can take these 21 days to just focus on learning more than I know, I feel like that alone will change my life. I'm expecting big things, I don't want to be average. I just know the calling that you have placed on my life is bigger than anything I could ever come up with on my own and I know that if I am not seeking after you, I might just miss that calling. So the last 4 days I have found myself seeking your face with the intention of finding you, with the intentions of knowing more about the God I serve. I want to fall in love with you again, I want to melt in your peace instead of worrying about every little thing. I want to take a step back and hear your heartbeat to listen for your direction on the path that I should walk down. Instead of me being stubborn and trying to take on my own life and worrys and paths, I want to hand it over to you, I want to lay it at your feet. I need wisdom. Wisdom to calm down and know that you are standing right behind me in not only my sad times but also my happy times. I need you. I am on my face seeking after you. You are my treasure and I will live, not only this through this fast, but the rest of my life running after you.
