The Fasting (and Feasting!) Life

Fast from judging others;
Feast on Christ dwelling in them.
Fast from fear of illness;
Feast on the healing power of God.
Fast from words that hurt;
Feast on speech that honors.
Fast from discontent;
Feast on gratitude.
Fast from anger;
Feast on patience.
Fast from pessimism;
Feast on hope.
Fast from negatives;
Feast on the positive.
Fast from bitterness;
Feast on forgiveness.
Fast from self-concern;
Feast on compassion.
Fast from doubt;
Feast on truth.
Fast from gossip;
Feast on purposeful silence.
Fast from anxiety; 
Feast on faith. 
Fast from problems that overwhelm;
Feast on prayer that sustains.
