Daily Reflection Comments

I have to agree that I really understand the role of fasting lately when I really focus my life on spiritual matters first. I did fast, made abstinence for Lent. As it is a must for me on Lent. But rarely I fast on other occasions as it reserved for Lent for me, and I was wrong. After talking to some priests and encountering some very spiritual people that I realize the great importance of fasting in a Christian life and I stop thinking of fasting is for Lent only. I like this sentence from the reflections of today: “It is the best way to defeat the devil” “It purifies the heart , submits the flesh to discipline and self-control”. It is true and now before taking a good decision, I did my rosary and now I start to fast for any time I can. Thank you, Lord, for giving us this example to follow. You did fast for 40 days that any ordinary human can do. Your body was weak, but Your Divine Power strengthens you more to bear that cross for us. We love you Jesus. Thanks for the reflections
