Lenten Fasting and Feasting



Perhaps one or two of these will jump out at you, as they did for me;
compliments of the Sisters of St. Francis of Perpetual Adoration, in Mishawaka, IN:
 
Fast from judging others:
Feast on Christ dwelling in you.
 
Fast from words that discourage:
Feast on words that encourage.
 
Fast from discontentment:
Feast on gratitude.
 
Fast from anger:
Feast on patience.
 
Fast from complaining:
Feast on appreciation.
 
Fast from shadows of sorrow:
Feast on the sunlight of serenity and joy.
 
Fast from food:
Feast on the word of God.

Blessed Mother Maria Theresia, pray for us!
