A little advice

When you add input to the blog, it's easier to follow if you create a new post instead of commenting on someone else's. I'm not sure why it works that way.

But to follow up on ML's question, I feel hungry when I fast. I get grumpy, which is good, I guess, because it makes me realize how weak I really am. I must say that some of the most life-changing breakthroughs of my life have come after periods of fasting. I can't say that I always feel closer to God when I fast, but I have been changed by it. I have also noticed that when I fast and don't pray it's not nearly as encouraging and "spiritual" feeling as when I actually pray when I fast.
