We went to see "The Passion of the Christ" with our cell group last night. However when we got there it was already sold out!!! I guess it was the fact that Tuesday night is cheap night and lots of people come out. The cinema is so expensive usually that Tuesday becomes very busy. So instead of seeing the Passion we saw Starsky and Hutch. This was absolutely hilarious. Not the sort of film that I was expecting to see, but I enjoyed it just as much. I still can't wait to see the Passion but I guess i will have to wait a bit longer.
Easter People is fast approaching. I am looking forward to this very much. I have begun to pray for it and I feel good at the moment. I want to fast and pray before the event as well.
Talking of fasting, I want to remind myself via this blog that I believe that part of my calling is fasting and prayer. I feel a connection with the life of John the Baptist and feel called to emulate something of the Nazirite lifestyle of fasting. However I find it increasingly difficult to fast. I guess this must be some resistance to me becoming more fully who I am called to be. I need to break the physical thing of fasting.
So I am going to fast tomorrow (Thursday) and pray for EP.
I will let you know how I get on!!
