Fasting: powerful time of renewing your relationship with God. A way to disciplining, say "no" to the temptations/ addicting.
Fasting: powerful time of renewing your relationship with God. A way to disciplining, say "no" to the temptations/ addicting.
In our church, we don't
have to fast food, but we can fast anything that we think is preventing or take
away the attention we ought to put on God.
I chose to stop using
Facebook/Instagram, social media...
I found it way too
addicting, prevent me from focus on what is important, and what my heart desires.
And I would care too much about what other people would think of me, create
such images with the rightful wording...
There are too many
voices shouting to me the fashion, the opinions, the good-looking models, the
cool kind of pictures. It made connecting with people more superficial.
at first it is hard,
fingers muscle and brain muscle go to the location on the phone automatically,
and a little bit sad of feeling missing out what other people's doing...losing
the freedom of access it.
but later, i find it
more relief, so much more time I get to spend quality time with my love ones,
and with myself, I get to spend more time reflecting, and focus enjoy the
things I have always wanted to do.
I don't know what's
preventing you from the life style you truly desire.
Maybe think of a way to
discipline yourself, it may seem to regulate you at times, but often it gives
you more freedom. Discipline set you free
Like how I feel more
freedom when I don't use Facebook/Instagram, because instead of information
shouting at me, I can have the chance to pick and choose what is good for me
with more free time. instead of caring way too much, comparing myself with
other girls, I learn to spend time alone and appreciate myself more.
It is never too late to
change...
Time of renewing
Time of reflecting
Time of
quietness/meditate
Time of get rid of bad
habit
Time of picking up the
long forgotten yearly set goal
Time of re-commit
Rethink what bad habit,
block you from the fullness of enjoying life, from living out the fullness of
life. What's that one little think you can change in your life?
