You're listening to the Water Into Wine podcast hosted by Grace Valentine.

Hello everybody and welcome back to another edition of the Water Into Wine podcast.

I'm your host, Grace Valentine, and I have my friend Victoria back to you.

Me, I'm back, everyone.

She's back.

She's, you thought she was gone she's not just

behind the producing now she's yab been with me it's so much more fun having Victoria just

yeah it is so much more fun having a just like a friend and so when you know well you're not just like

so what's your what do you do yeah I completely. Okay, so let's talk about spiritual habits.

Actually, this is what I, as your friend, I've noticed you are so good at your spiritual habits and disciplines. Thanks. And I think some people think of spiritual habits is like, obviously there's the basics. It's praying, is go to church. Uh-huh. And those are so important for you. but I even been getting into like well for one i've been

trying to get more into fasting it's been like even even if it's just fasting from like online shopping

or fasting from social media and having a sabbath like those are important for me but the irony

of fasting is you'll understand i used to be i used to struggle with eating disorder when i was in high

school so when i fast i can't just i don't know if i never tell you that no you told me that okay um i was like nice to hello if i shouldn't have told you this um this would be a word time to be like by the way show body image but i so it's funny because all my friends would be heavy fast at when i was like discerting something actually friend Riley who's amazing you met Riley red curly hair. She's so great was like you should fast about this

But in my head I'm like if I fast from food I'm gonna be like am I getting skinny you know

Check the scale at the end of the fast. Lord Lord this was for you Lord this was for you

Was I such a great Christian Christian I'm a skinny Christian

so I'm like I can't fast that way because it's literally my flesh it won't be my my literally

flesh will be happy um but there's other things anyways what special disciplines do you like the

most that actually help you hear from God like when you're discerning should I do this should I do that are you to haven't heard God's voice what do you do the most that actually help you hear from God? Like when you're discerning should I do this? Should I do that? Are you to haven't heard God's voice? What do you do to hear from them? That's a loaded question because do I like doing these things? No. Do I think it's necessary? Yes. I actually do fast when I am trying to hear from the Lord. It is not, it's my last resort though. It's like what I'm like scratching the chalkboard of my Lord, I need to hear from you.

What? It is not, it's my last resort, though. It's like what I'm like scratching the chalkboard.

Like, Lord, I need to hear from you.
