“Fast from bitterness – feast on forgiveness.

Fast from self-concern – feast on compassion for others.

Fast from personal anxiety – feast on eternal truth.

Fast from anger – feast on patience.

Fast from words that destroy – feast on words that build up.

Fast from discontent – feast on gratitude.

Fast from discouragement – feast on hope.”
