Today’s Blogger:
Today’s blogger for The 40 Day Fast is Jeanine.
National Geographic Magazine in 2004 reported the mind-blowing statistical reality that “…there are more slaves today than were trafficked in four centuries of the trans-Atlantic slave trade.” Injustice in a modern society.
Proverbs 31:8-9 says: “Speak for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute. Speak up and judge fairly; defend the rights of the poor and needy.”
Today’s Inspiration:
“Aim at heaven and you will get earth thrown in. Aim at earth and you get neither.”
-C. S. Lewis
Today’s Challenge:
Take 15 minutes today to specifically pray for someone you know who is in need.

Kat, thanks for posting the daily inspirations and challenges. I look forward to reading them before I read the post for the day. The challenges are especially helpful since acting on my compassion for others has not been something I’ve done so well. Thanks for taking the time to post these!

Marianne,
I’m glad you’ve enjoyed them. They’ve really helped me to try to take at least one small practical step each day of this fast.
