Jesus said, "Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be filled." (Matthew 5:6) Fasting helps separate what we want from what we need. It causes us to focus on the things that matter instead of the things that distract.

Day 7 (or 3 for some)
Whether you're doing the Daniel Fast (DF), a full fast, or fasting a specific item or activity, we have to remember that it's more about Him than it is about us! In the early days of our fasting, it's so easy to get distracted by the action itself of denying ourselves. However, we need to focus on what we're gaining as well! I would encourage you to read the comments on Day Two from Amy Riccio about her testimony on day 5. Let's rejoice in what God is doing and look forward to what He is about to do. Share your testimonies along the way as well.

Being first timer to the Daniel Fast. And after a frustrating trip to the grocery store. (frustrating because of the lack of choices in food and the prices of the available foods) I know that there are recipes on websites and in books. I understand that we are probably choosing different things to fast. I am wondering what those who are trying to stay true to DF are really feeding their families.
