Getting back to God

My discipleship partner and I are back on a 40 day fast.  Juice, protein drinks and water for 40 days.  Last time I was excited about the chance to lose 30 lbs and I did.  I became less interested in the weight loss over time and grew closer to god than ever before.  This time Im sitting at 165 lbs and weight loss is not a issue at all.  I am only focused on growing closer to god.  I am running a journal for the 40 days.  We are reading Rick Warren's A purpose driven life.  Daily reading of the bible in series w/ our church.  We are also meeting weekly and doing other discipleship books.  I am praying 2 times per day.  Just looking to the lord to show me the plan he has for me.
