On the last day of my fast, I found this great John Piper quote on Desiring God's website.
"?The reward we are to seek from the Father in fasting is not first or mainly the gifts of God, but God himself."
(A Hunger for God, pg. 78)
I thank God that by his grace He gave me this outlook before the fast began. And as my 8 day fast comes to an end, God himself is what I am still seeking.
P.S. After a good night's sleep, the nervousness I had about tonight's Starving Jesus event is gone and I am extremely excited at what God may do tonight. Hope to see you there!
