Bible Note: Hello Hugger! Thank you for offering your valuable insight! I appreciate your explanation of fasting as a "calling".. That is a very good thought! I have known people who were moved to pray for others without having a prior knowledge of that person's condition or why they are praying, and I find it very interesting that the Lord would call us to fast in this way as well. I appreciate your encouragement, and your wisdom gained through experience is invaluable! Thank you for your reply! Blessings to you, Nolan |
