Pursuing spiritual Fulfillment

Greetings to all. As we come together this Thursday, let's make an effort to fill our lives with prayer and fasting that honor God.

There are many ways to please God and pursue spiritual fulfillment, but we should not make it a public spectacle. In our quiet time, instead of being bored, distracted, or reaching for food, we can honor God by spending more time in prayer and fasting.

Matthew 6:16–18 (GW)

16 “When you fast, stop looking sad like hypocrites. They put on sad faces to make it obvious that they’re fasting. I can guarantee this truth: That will be their only reward.

17 When you fast, wash your face and comb your hair.

18 Then your fasting won’t be obvious. Instead, it will be obvious to your Father who is with you in private. Your Father sees what you do in private. He will reward you. 

Lesson: Do not let ourselves become spiritually empty. Let's choose prayer and fasting, showing God that we desire Him more than physical comfort.
