40-Days Prayer & Fast

If you were to think of a picture that would represent your journey these past few weeks since the 40-days prayer and fast begun, what would it be?

For me, a smooth pebble lying across the stream represents my journey thus far.

Coupled together with Ps Khong's series of sermons on "Standing Tall in Turbulent Times", I feel that these few weeks has been a refining period for me:
  1. In learning to trust God that He is in control of all things (Heb 5:13-14);
  2. Being stretched to learn to listen to the voice of God amidst many distractions (Jn 10:27);
  3. Pruning of my heart away from all self-centeredness and learning to be God-center/conscious (Col 3:1-3)
I started the 40-days prayer and fast like a rough surfaced pebble and now I am in the process of being molded and smoothened by the Lord's hands.

How about You?
