A Different Approach to Fasting...

Fasts have a tendency to be oriented toward things like giving up food or TV. But there are many other creative ways we can welcome Jesus' healing touch into our lives. Some suggestions:

1. Fast from anger and hatred. Give your family an extra dose of love each day.

2. Fast from judging others. Before making any judgments, recall How Jesus overlooks our faults.

3. Fast from discouragement. Hold on to Jesus' promise that He has a perfect plan for your life.

4. Fast from complaining. When you find yourself about to complain, close your eyes and recall some small blessing or joy Jesus has given you.

5. Fast from resentment or bitterness!. Work on forgiving those who may have hurt you.

6. Fast from spending too much money. Try to reduce your spending by ten percent and give those savings to the poor.

“May the Lord who began the good work in you bring it to completion.” May our Lent be a fruitful one.
