Hook: Why do you think fasting has become somewhat of a lost art?

Book: Jesus had some great news about fasting. It is not about food or other people but about God. People went to extreme measures to broadcast their eating sacrifices just to impress others. They missed some great food for nothing. Like giving and prayer, fasting was an act of sacrifice intended to honor the Father. The time saved can be used in personal worship. The rewards for fasting are greater than a smaller waistline or momentary praise because they will come from the Father Himself. You can eat and drink to that!

Took: Skip a meal or two this week and spend the time with the Heavenly Father instead. What do you think you will discover?
