Today I posted an article at MMB on Fasting. I'd be honored if you'd stop by and read a bit.
"Psalms 109:24 "My knees are weak through fasting; and my flesh faileth of fatness."
I understand the whole theology behind why we fast, but seriously that is a hard thing to do."

I loved your post over at MMB. We have those in our family who can't fast for various reasons so I SO appreciate your wise words.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't leave my comment on the MMB site.
ReplyDeleteI don't fast very often. Maybe I'm just immature. But I have a real testimony of how powerful fasting is. I have fasted for various purposes and there is a power which accompanies a fast that I have found no where else in my life. So you would think I would fast more often? It's one of those aspects of the gospel I need to improve on. I like the idea of adding something during Lent. Often our greatest sacrifices are what we decide to DO with our time. :)
I admire you for actually contributing as a contributor! I'm a contributor too, but have yet to get the nerve to post anything! You are awesome, heading over there to read it now :)
ReplyDeleteUnless I can also choose to do nothing all day that requires energy, I'm not one for fasting. Although, I do actually recognize and appreciate the spiritual discipline.
