Quote from a book Called Fasting by Jentezen Franklin

God will break all the religious rules for you. When you hunger for God, He will break the rules of man and cause His favor to come on your life. Anybody can be normal. Normal is overrated. Someone has to say, "But I want more! Lord, I'm hungry! I'm going to have to push tradition aside! I'm going to have to push religious rules aside! I'm going to have to push all of the rituals aside because I'm starving to death, and I just can't do church as usual any longer." We must begin to desire Him more than food or drink. Let us be filled with the Bread of Life instead of the refuse of religion. Begin to make fasting a regular discipline, and see how God answers your hunger!

Dear readers,

Life has definitely been full this month! I have experienced so much in the natural and the supernatural! I have chosen to draw close to my Beloved and He has drawn closer to me! I love walking this life with my best friends, my Heavenly Father, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit! They have helped me thru a fire, death, vehicles breaking down, vehicles being in the ditch, children misbehaving, communicating in difficult situations and the list continues to grow. They have shown me the purest love and given me the eyes to see the true beauty in life and how to really live it! I have very little to offer them but I am on the greatest adventure. I have such a peace and sleep well and rest well at all times. I have learned I can have answered prayer and the power of praying this past year. Also how that can change everything in your life. We are still in transition, waiting on cleaning and painting to be done in the house so we can go back home. The van is getting worked on and should be done any day! Life is full but good! Theia is talking more and started running everywhere, Tristan is eager to learn everything, less explosive! Timmy is having game withdrawal but doing good in school, Tessa is struggling with school but loving being in Grandma's house! Lots of stories and little things to write in a book if I only had more time! The little ones all love Grandma's garden tub. They also love her muppet shows over and over again! They discovered Green Acres the other day and were mesmerized by the show. We all love to play WII with her, Timmy is now the bowling champion! Takes after His daddy! I can't bowl! Anyway, I will try to update more often, hope you are well and blessed, Love Erika

Life without Papa, it is unknown. I never dreamed there would be a day without your love to smile back at me. So now I sing Yentl's song and know you hear me.

Papa can you see me?

Papa can hear me?

I will try to fly for you Papa!

I love you, Your little girl, Erika Lyn
