hind'sfeet 1 Posted February 13, 2011 I thought it was my idea to start a 3 day fast last friday a.m. So, I've been on a water fast because of bad roots, shortcomings, and idols that I haven't fully realized are idols. Father help me to see my idols as you see them and to use a kind voice when I'm angry, in Yeshua name AMEN!!!So, yesterday I had an idea to take communion today, but I shot down the idea because it might break my fast.TODAY, I didn't not know what the pastors had prepared for this day and when I noticed he mentioned we were going to be taking communion I was like WOW!!! I realized that the fast was NOT my idea and neither was taking communion!!! He had prepared yesterday to take communion TODAY. In fact He had prepared me since Friday to take communion TODAY!!! Yesterdays "idea" was today's confirmation of what I was to do. I was struggling with it today because my son does not sit in his chair properly and is distracting, so I speak out of anger and not love. God gave me another chance and I gave him non painful swat instead of using my voice. He told me that it is HIS fast and HIS communion and that He sees my heart Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cholette 0 Posted February 13, 2011 That's awesome HF... I'm curious to know how would communion break your fast? Communion is a spiritual thing...not natural. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
owen 0 Posted February 13, 2011 I dont see anything wrong taking the communion if you are fasting, I believe it wont break the fast.My only concern is the wine which will make an empty stomach acidic, unless if your stomach can tolerate acidity while fasting.

hind'sfeet 1 Posted February 13, 2011 AMEN James!!!Cholette and Owen, I actually Didn't know that it wouldn't break my fast! That's why He had me prepared the day before (thought about it already) Today is when I realized that it wouldn't break my fast because it was Him who gave me the idea and then even Brought me TO IT I had never had that happen before, so it was a real blessing!!!I've only been to one church that does real wine! Which was the beginning of this year at my home town. Most of my church going life it has been grape juice. When I took communion at the church that does the wine, I didn't know! When I drank it I was in shock because I wasn't expecting wine, but it was a sweet red wine. I don't like red wine, only sweet white wine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
