This is the second year in a row that I have participated in the 40-Day Sugar Fast via an online community. My struggles were different, my focus was different, life was different. BUT, God is unchanging. His desire for me to love, honor & obey is the same yesterday, today & tomorrow.

Fasting, according to the Bible, means to voluntarily reduce or eliminate your intake of food for a specific time and purpose. “When you give up eating, don’t put on a sad face like the hypocrites. They make. their faces look sad to show people they are giving up eating. (See the PDF)

But feed your spiritual cravings every day, and they will grow abundantly, exceedingly more than forty days can capture.” Wendy Speake
