Jack Franicevich | Fasting Means Not Eating Food

Описание: This Lent, we focus on two simple practices: fasting and almsgiving.

Fasting is just that—not eating. It reminds us we’re dependent on God. Hunger reveals what’s really inside us and turns our attention to prayer. Fast in a way that stretches you, and let your physical hunger awaken spiritual hunger.

Almsgiving is simply giving your money away. Not strategically. Not carefully managed. Just generosity that costs you something. The apostles summed up faithful ministry in one phrase: remember the poor.

Empty your body. Empty your hands. And trust God to fill you with good things.
