Agree! God looks at our heart NOT our color. True believers will do the same!
1 Samuel 16:7
7 But the Lord said to Samuel, “Do not look at his appearance or at his physical stature, because I have refused him. For the Lord does not see as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.”

Yes we'll continue to pray. Christ's love, peace and wisdom in this Minneapolis issue. Also, praying for Hong Kong and China! And the great needs mentioned here in different parts of the world.
Amen!

That is just about where I'm at for fasting, too. One to two days.
More time isolated from distractions and concentrated on God, I believe is really more the priority for me than the days I don't eat. But it can be a helpful part.
There can be so many distractions today that can mess with our thinking, emotions and take us off course. That is a part of my challenge.

They are one of my favorite dog breeds!
They seem to be very smart.
Yes and cute, too.
@Lindseyay
Pretty good. Quite mostly for me. How
About you?
@Ashtree
I've had a similar struggle with fasting, too. I have some health concerns but I also need to mature spiritually and grow closer to the Lord. Need to continue to Change!
@RebeckaB
What breed of dog do you have? Is it a Border Collie?
@paulandico4
I was just talking with someone recently about about those versus the other day. It is a good example of faith in God's promises when facing difficult situations. I'm still learning and growing in that faith. I'm dealing with multiple questions and challenges at this time. My challenges might not compare to this story or what many of you are dealing with now. But for all of us we Have to learn to trust God!
@RebeckaB
Doing good! Resting and planning for some next steps. How are you doing today?
@sinbach
That sounds great, brother!
I have similar hopes to strengthen believers relationships, support and reach. Praying and more!
Please keep me informed!
@earthexpatmama

A song I've been listening and praying with lately.
@mary_vedeva
Yes the challenge for me is who and what to trust? Especially these days!
Need more of God's wisdom and discernment. Led by the Spirit and not my mind.
Yes and Amen!
God help us to be led by your Spirit and the Love like the First Church!
For us to change into disciples that are pleasing to You!
