Fast Night 5: Rewarding

“Fast so that your fasting will not be noticed by others but only by your Father who is unseen. Your Father, who sees you in private, will reward you.” Matthew 6: 16-17

When I started this blog, this was an area of great concern for me. I have needed God’s encouragement and wisdom to present fasting with humility, on this blog and in conversations with others. It took many years of private fasting to confirm to me that God has been asking me to speak out about my own experiences, plans, and struggles for the growth of His other children. If sharing assures others that this is a valuable and powerful spiritual exercise to be drawn into a deeper intimacy with God in a way that some of the other spiritual disciplines may not, it is a distinct calling from Him. This is my reward. I will be obedient. I will continue to fast and learn. I will open my mouth to help others.

So may you share your experiences with God through fasting with others!
