How has simplifying your meals impacted your time with God and your focus on prayer?
One of the blessings of the Daniel Fast is the simplicity of the meals, which allows more time to focus on God. Have you noticed a shift in your prayer life or your ability to spend time in His presence? Let us know how this has impacted your journey so far.

Fasting brings me a sense of clarity I don't usually experience. The Christmas candy sits untouched, not through force, but through a deeper understanding of my choices and not letting God down. During these weeks, I feel closer to my faith. My connection to God feels more intimate, though I worry about maintaining this feeling afterward. Simplifying my meals has transformed my prayer life. With less time spent thinking about food, I've discovered more mental space for spiritual reflection. My prayers have become more intentional and focused. The simplicity of my eating feels like it's clearing mental clutter, opening new opportunities, and creating room for deeper conversations with God. I'm learning that balance matters. The determination I find during fasting isn't about perfection, but about understanding myself and drawing closer to God. Each moment becomes a quiet conversation with my inner self and with God. Ending the fast is just another part of the journey, but I struggle with this each year. I'm trying to carry this sense of peace and spiritual focus into my everyday life, knowing it's okay to be gentle with myself as I grow.
Protein oats/vegi soup mix
These are really good. I put baked apple pieces with cinnamon and ginger in them. Bananas and raisins are also good too. Bob Mills vegi soup mix is excellent as well

Forces
Today has been filled with challenges brought on by circumstances completely beyond my control. The enemy tried to attack not only me but my daughter as well. I had encouraged her to join the fast, and it seems we were both targeted today, leading to strong emotions rising to the surface. It took me a moment to gather myself, but I eventually recognized what was happening. Though I felt defeated and drained in the moment, I made a conscious effort to turn back to God's Word and allow Him to guide my steps. In doing so, I was able to reclaim my peace. I ran across an article written by Susan talking about three forces trying to steal your fasting success. It is worth reading and provides valuable insights into the spiritual challenges that can emerge during a time of focused prayer and fasting. Her perspective resonated with me, especially in light of the attacks we experienced today. Here is the link https://www.daniel-fast.com/three-forces/ Ephesians 6:13: “Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand.” Be blessed everyone and stand strong 💞
Breakfast bites
Hi all, I wanted to share a recipe I make every year during the fast, I’m not sure if it, or something similar has already been shared. I use them mostly for an on the go breakfast but they make a great snack too: -2 or 3 mashed bananas -natural unsweetened peanut butter -oats -chopped pecans -cinnamon -vanilla Pinch of coarse salt I mix everything together & drop tablespoons of mixture on a parchment lined baking sheet -bake at 350* for about 18 minutes or until lightly browned -store in air tight container Sorry I don’t have exact measurements I just mix it up till it’s like “cookie dough” Also, you can add so many things to this recipe all kinds of nuts, seeds, dried fruit (I use whatever I have on hand that is allowed during the fast)

New course roll out
Hi Susan, Can you tell mw when your new course will be out that you spoke about in our last meetings. You had mentioned that you were still working on it but hoped to get it rolled out soon. I believe it focused on creating online classes and such. Is this something you have already rolled out and I missed it? Blessing, Kim
