Daniel's Fast

My husband is currently doing the Daniel's fast, a way of fasting for this Lent season. Our church encourages those who wanted to do the fasting to be drawn more closer to the Lord. I cannot do the fasting because I am still breastfeeding, so hubby signed up for it. They started on March 16 and will end on April 5th. So far hubby is doing well. The only food they can eat are vegetables and fruits and other natural food. No meat, bread, and other processed foods.

From the start of the fasting until now he was able to lost 14 pounds. He said it feels great. I know how he feels and he is fighting the cravings, but I am proud that he had the discipline. He said he is drawing his strength from God and I know he will make it to the end. I am pretty sure that at the end of this, he will not only become physically fit but also his belief in God will be more strengthened.
