Fasting to Remember

I am fasting right now and have resolved not to eat until I recover all of my lost memorized Scripture, probably excluding the chapters in Acts I once had, because those will be almost like starting from scratch.  A secondary goal is to prepare spiritually for our trip to Haiti in October.  The following chart with chronicle my progress, as well as lessons God is teaching me along the away. 
God is truly amazing!

Day/Date            Scripture                  Notes__                         ____

(start)                   Romans-2 Thess.     

     -Had these recovered before starting the fast

1. (8/13)               I Timothy

2. (8/14)               II Tim. / Titus        

     -powerful day of prayer

3. (8/15)               Philemon/Heb. 1-7

     -started the day by writing song from Psalm 34
     -powerful day of prayer & fasting

4. (8/16)               Heb. 7-10               

     -Great day...didn't have a lot of time for Bible...
     -Spent 9 hours writing original praise music!

5. (8/17)               Heb. 11-13             

     -Very challenging day.  Did not sleep well the day before, so add
       tired to hungry.  It is helping me imagine a normal day for many
       Haitians. Learning to look to God to meet my needs...

6. (8/18)               James/ I Pet.             

     -Slept deeply last night and was reinvigorated for this pursuit. 
       It was a good and restful day, though my thoughts were
       scattered.  Good family time...I appreciate each of them!

7. (8/19)               (review)                    

     -Probably won't get new stuff done today...Trying to review
       everything above... Definitely some attacks of Satan today,
       trying to cause division in our family.

8. (8/20)               (review)                   

     -Getting a bit bogged down reviewing some of Paul's letters. 
       Probably my brain is not hitting on all cylinders.  Pressing on! 
       Ended up having a really good day...worked on music, and took
       the kids to the water park. 

9.  (8/21)              (review)                 

     -Could not sleep last night!  Caffeine!  Need to make some
      progress on Scripture today.  It has been a good day.  The
      hunger comes and goes at all times.  The lesson is to seek God
      for all needs and learn to be content/at peace/focused even when
      suffering.  Hard for us Americans!  Nice rain this afternoon...

10.  (8/22)            (review)

11.  (8/23)        *Ended my fast about half-way through this day, unsuccessful in my pledge to recapture the missing verses, books, etc...  I just got to the point where I wasn't sleep and had to drink several glasses of water every 90 minutes or so (all night).  I was concerned for my health!  But it was a great experience and much prayer time was utilized. 

Thanks, Lord!
