A different approach to Fasting

Lenten fasts have a tendency to be oriented toward things like giving up food
or television.? But there are many other creative ways we can welcome Jesus'
healing touch this Lent.? Below are some suggestions you may want to
consider.

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

   Fast from judging others.? Before making any judgements, recall how Jesus
overlooks our faults.

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

   Fast from complaining.? When you find yourself about to complain, close
your eyes and recall some of the little moments of joy Jesus has given you.

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

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