I might be learning something.
Fasting is about sacrifice. I would suggest that biblical fasting involves food. It’s not abstinence from social media.
That said, I have tried to only do juice. Well, that is tearing up my stomach. Where is God in that?
I believe that part of what He is showing me is that fasting is about the heart putting skin in the game. If for whatever reason I cannot do just juice. it is ok to have some saltines to calm my stomach down. This is about being and giving a sacrifice to God.
It is not about perfection. That is religion, I think.
I dont know if this is accurate or not. I hope it’s not rationalization for not getting my fast 100% perfect.
Jen and I are continuing to fast. Today, I am having coffee.
Is this still an acceptable offering to God? I sure hope it is.
LORD?
