Why do we fast? Fasting has acquired a bad rep. We think only of going hungry for a day. That is easy. Try fasting from gossip, TikTok, Facebook, Snap Chat, swearing, losing your temper for just one day, let alone 40 days. Then use the gained time for something positive. Not so easy, though you may find it is worth the struggle. Fast for improving your relationships with others, and therefore with God, not to drop a few pounds. Good luck!
