prayer and fasting

Posted by: ilovekenya on: September 17, 2007

just relating part of my journey. this isn’t a “look at me” moment.
our church just kicked off a time of corporate prayer and fasting.
i generally enjoy periods of fasting as a way of reminding myself that i need more of my G-d and less of what this world flashes in front of me.
this year, i [...]

we love our dog. as i mentioned a few posts ago, i am a little worried about how she will react to a baby in the house.
