hello? I'm new on the site and happy to find a place were I can chat and ask questions.....
well I'm fasting about a couple of thngs in my life right now and I'm doing a fruit and vegetable fast. Now with the veges, the are hard to eat without the dressing on it...is that okay, or is it putting luxury to the fast. How should a fast of this sort be? how exactly? Also what should one drink? I like to have a cup of coffe in the morning, is that still okay...or is it only fruit juices.
I am not accustomed to any other kind of fasts except dry fasting, but it tends to take a toll on my body which in the end does more hard than good.
HELP....this fast has to be done right...
thanks,
Patricia.

Boy, that really sounds good, Brother Love.
Well, patricia, I didn't know it was really a fast if I was eating anything. But raw veggies are certainly good for us! To make them more palatable, I like just ordinary canned tomato paste(most brands have only tomatoes in it--nothing else, not even salt), carefully stirred by slowly adding water, 'till I've diluted it into a tomato sauce, or even just tomoto juice. It's low calorie, and tastes pretty good.
When I fast, I still drink liquids--tea, unsweetened, or some fruit juice, unsweetened.
I fast the evening meal most every day(thank you Jesus).

Did you boys scare off patricia? Anyone interested in more fast talk? That would be nice! I need to fast; I have been needing that for a while now. It seems that lately I've had no "reason" to do it, and so I've only managed 1/2 day every once in a great while...it would be great if someone could fast with me! Does anyone here ever have difficulty fasting, besides medical reasons such as medications, diabetes etc.? |

Try having a couple of heart "episodes" - your cardiologist will put you on a vege-fruit fast for life. (Ah, but I cheat.)  When I fast it is usually a water-juice-coffee only fast for 24 hours, for very specific reasons, and no body knows I'm fasting except for God and I. A lady at my church tried a no meat fast a couple of years ago and hasn't eaten red meat since. |

i have actually never fasted. i have been raised in church and have been saved and recently rededicated my live. i have heard alot about fasting however i have never really understood it and of course a little embarrassed to ask questions. fasting sounds like a diet. however i can't diet but if it's for the Lord...i will.
