What the Fast Does

 

 

It’s not what we give up. It’s what we go after.

 

“Prayer is reaching out and after the unseen; fasting, letting go of
all that is seen and temporal. Fasting helps express, deepens, confirms the resolution that we are ready to sacrifice anything, even ourselves, to attain what we seek for the kingdom of God.”

Andrew Murray. (1828-1917)
