Ethics in Fasting

Ethics in Fasting

Only God and you can know whether you are sticking to your vow to fast or whether you “sneak” a bit of candy or a small snack.  Your integrity determines how you fast.  Fasting is not just getting answers to prayer; it is also about how you do it.  The same values you hold in your life will guide you in your fasting decisions.  Fasting is not only the right thing to do to get results, but also an exercise in your character growth and development.  I will leave with you three tough questions for you to use to help you evaluate your fast:

1) Am I doing what I said I am going to do?

2) Am I doing it the way I said I was going to do it?

3) Am I on track with my purpose?
