Thoughts for the Day:
This is the story of Zechariah and Elizabeth, the parents of John the Baptist. Of the two of them, who had faith in the power of God to change their lives?
Who did not have faith in this story?
During Lent, if God wanted to change YOUR life...the way you did things, the way you thought...would you be open to it?
Elizabeth has a great quote in verse 25: "The Lord has done this for me." Pray and thank God for God's activity in your life.
Fasting Update:
It's the first day of my fast (I'm going to try and not eat "out" for 40 days) and already I'm running into technical difficulties. What about Family Night Supper at church tonight? Does that count? I guess not...but tonight we're having roast beef with gravy...green beans and scalloped potatoes...waaaaah!!!!!
Tonight after Family Night Supper, Dr. Bland will be talking about the meaning behind "Ash Wednesday". Hope to see you then!
