In case it doesn't link, you can also find it under "Pastor's Corner". One thing, on survival, obviously, we have not died from fasting, so there is that . I remember one time we were watching some "survival" type show, where a couple had only been without food for the afternoon and were already complaining about how hungry they were. Perhaps we in the "first world" make a bit much about how much we really need . In any case, there is much Biblical precedent, including Jesus, for the power of fasting, so it's down to a matter of whether we choose, or not, to step out in faith .

    Hey there, Jay! If the Holy Spirit is leading you and you step out, I believe that He will lead you to a church home that you will be happy to be a part of . On the "nice clothes", we are also not too interested in churches that have much of a dress code - we like to be ourselves, and we like that a church would welcome us as we are . I'm thinking it may just be the same for you, and you just need to find one who accepts you as YOU are . Also, I totally get that your internal clock is difficult to get in sync with typical church services! A lot of local churches have an evening service. They are usually not as well attended as the Sunday service, so maybe a good way to get started without calling attention to yourself too much ! My guess is that you are not lazy, but change can be difficult and perhaps dealing with a bunch of new people can be daunting. If the Holy Spirit is leading you though, following is the best thing you can do <3!

    Amen... I wish my friend Daniel understood the importance of this. Three years ago when he told me that he wanted to commit suicide. I was there to encourage him and reinforce the word of God and the love of Jesus Christ with him because he is a Christian and was baptized in the same river as Jesus Christ. However, three years later in the year of 2018 he decided to commit suicide. I’m so sad and upset with him at the same time because he knows better. He put down his armor and the devil took control of his mind. It’s extremly important to not only hear but to also obey the voice of the Lord. Thank you for this very on time message pastor Dion.
