Day to Atone

Yom Kippur, a holiday I began to appreciate only four or five years ago, has come. For the first time I am spending the holiest day of the year away from all family or friends who would celebrate it with me. Instead I am surrounded by people who do not fully understand the importance of this day and how it affects my walk with the Lord... yet I am blessed to have this challenge. The Lord sent His son on my behalf so that I may see his love and lean on him on days like these.

Fasting is an issue because I am still sick and need some drugs. :) So a slice of bread is gonna have to do so my tummy doesn't get more upset:)

So what will I do today? I wanted to go to a Messianic Synagogue buuuuttttttttt..... I slept through my alarm:( After getting upset at myself I thought to myself...

"God just wants me all to himself!" ..... :)

... So what am I to do now? How do I celebrate Yom Kippur in the comfort of my bunk bed?(surprisingly it is comfortable:D). Flat mates are moving around.. coming and going while I sit here wondering what to do with my day. A challenge, one of the first since I got to London, that I am excited to see where it will take me in the end..

Today I will spend the day looking up and thanking the Lord for all he has done. Not one moment will I be alone cause.. well you know.. he's sittin right here with me:)

Here we go.. day of atonement.. I'm here. With or without other messianics.. I got my eye on you Lord and you got a hold of me:D
