Fast from fear of illness and Feast on the healing power of God.
Fast from words that pollute and feast on speech that purifies.
Fast from pessimism and feast on optimism.
Fast from negative speech and Feast on affirmations.
Fast from bitterness and feast on forgiveness.
Fast from self-concern and Feast on compassion.
Fast from gossip and feast on purposeful silence.
Fast from problems that overwhelm and feast on prayer that sustains.
Fast from discontent and Feast on gratitude.
Fast from anger and Feast on patience.
Fast from suspicion and Feast on truth.
