Fasting with no comsumption of meat and only water

Welcome blog viewers again to my blog, thank you for taking your time to read my post for the day.
God bless you the weeks ahead.

I have made a commitment to fast, yup you heard me i am going to fast and pray, for this whole or month or maybe even next month, i will not take in any meat at all, not even fish or duck or chicken or pork, anything that is meat is a no to me, so i will only be taking in vegetables and water.

Why you say i am doing this? Using Daniel chapter 1 as my reference, if you have a bible, you may flip to Daniel chapter 1 and read it as i will not write anything out here in the post, its too long.

I want to follow what this man of God did, he purposed his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king's delicacies, which i think in olden times would be calf's, pork,deer,chicken, fish meat, many more and lots and lots of wine. So what did Daniel do, he instead as the steward to give them vegetables and water to drink for ten days and then he challenge the steward to compare the appearance of Daniel and the other three to be examined and compared to the rest of the young men who ate the portions of the king's delicacies.

And lo and behold at the end of the ten days Daniel and his friends feature appeared better and more leng chai, hoiyoo maybe more handsome than tom cruise, haha.

So the reason why they look better and leng chai was of course very practical, rubbish in rubbish out. It is so straight forward, ask yourself consuming vegetables and drinking water is more healthy or wine and meat is better, of course the vegetables and water is healthier and of course with God's good grace, they look fantastic.

I hope that by fasting without meat and taking in vegetables and drinking water only, i might be the same like Daniel also, haha, leng chai and also to lose some of my weight as now i am more health conscious and of course to impresses a girl, ahem.

So please do pray for me and my fasting that i might be self disciplined and persevere to finish this period of fasting. Your prayers will all be much appreciated. God bless you and thank you again.

Hugs,
