A Hunger for God

So, having thought for the last couple of years that God may want to do some healing ministry through Turning Point in Kibera, I now think that the time has come to start the ball rolling.

Over the last couple of months I have been thinking about fasting, and what its purpose is, so as to know whether or not to do some before jumping in feet first and just going for it. To try to answer this question I've started reading John Piper's 'A Hunger for God'. Even just the introduction has convinced me that I want to do some fasting prior to starting the healing ministry. At the moment I'm thinking that from September to December will be the time when I can maybe fast once per week and demonstrate my seriousness about this to God. And we'll see what happens...

At the coast AND ONE OF MY PRIORITIES WHILST HERE IS TO START THINKING AND PLANNING ANFG PRAYING ABOUT HOW TO START HEALING ON THE STREETS OF KIBERA. SO NO SURPRISE THAT WE WERE AWAKE HALF OF THE NIGHT LAST NIGHT FIGHTING OFF WHAT WE CONSIDER TO BE A SPIRITUAL ATTACK. HOPEFULLY TONIGHT WILL BE BETTER IN TERMS OF SLEEP!
