Fasting

We know from scripture that fasting is a powerful form of prayer. Discuss fasting with your family, decide what is best for you and then offer your fast in prayer and devotion. Your fast may be from a particular food item or even from a non-food item such as television or the internet. In fasting, we strive to open our hearts to God's infinite presence and love in our lives. (Reference: The Word Among Us ~ Advent 2005)
