April 28, 2010 Today is rough, it started out rough and finished just as rough, there is no easing up of this pain. I have longed for the feeling of God's presence in my life, I have longed for the sence of knowing that I, his daughter, have made him proud. I haven't felt that way in so long...

April 24, 2010 Today things are going great, went to work did some errands and just had an all around good day. I still have not noticed a change, I have not felt the Holy Spirit for some time and I am on the verge of giving up. I thought the whole point of fasts was to put aside fleshly...

April 23, 2010 So after the scare last night I was calm and came to work and shared my wild experience with my fellow workers when one pointed out that they could have stolen my Identity. This had me worried because I had no clue how to handle that. I called my bank and ran a credit check, I...

April 19, 2010 It has been a day, nice and calm and just enjoyable. I drank a cup and a half of coffee, I did pretty well so I will stay here for a little while before going down to a cup. Still notice no difference, God still seems 'silent' and not here, though I know that is not true. I am...
