Fasting is essentially a period of meditation and prayer, of spiritual recuperation, during which the believer must strive to make the necessary readjustments in his inner life, and to refresh and reinvigorate the spiritual forces latent in his soul. Its significance and purpose are, therefore, fundamentally spiritual in character. Fasting is symbolic, and a reminder of abstinence from selfish and carnal desires. Fast have a tendencies to be oriented towards things, like giving up foods, watching television, and hour of eluding your farmville or even breaking loose some of your time to blog. But there are other more important ways we can welcome Jesus' healing touch, you may want to consider
fast from hatred and anger. Give your love ones an additional dose of love and care, and give some of your felicitous smile to everybody.
Fast from judging others, before making any verdict, why not remembering on how Jesus overlooked our faults.
Fast from discouragements, though sometimes it so difficult not to be discouraged especially when you have suffered from a dreadful pain. I just hold on to Jesus' promised that He has pure plan for our life. Fast from complaining, when you find yourself moaning just close your eyes and remember those happy moments of your life. This is really effective, I've been doing this for for years and I really feel better. Fast from resentment or bitterness, try to forgive those who have hurt us. This might be too intricate but didn't you realize how baffling experience to forgive.
This lenten season, spend more time for our personal prayers. Let us rejuvenate our personal relationship with the Lord. May all have a meaningful and blessed lenten season, God bless us everyone.
