Fasting can be a good practice (when done wisely) for your body, but also for your mind and soul. You don't have to consider fasting as only related to food. Here are some things it might be good to fast from:
· bitterness
· technology (I dare you—and me--to take a 24 hour period each week in which we avoid checking email and Facebook, and look away from our screens.)
· cheap entertainment (such as celebrity gossip)
· spending/shopping
Question: what other things can you think of to fast from?
Complaining
ReplyDeleteCriticizing others
Working (for those of us who never stop)
Worrying
Busyness
Trying to control the world :)
