THE LAW OF THE FAST 🤍
Fasting is more than simply going without food. It is a way to humble ourselves, draw closer to Heavenly Father, seek spiritual strength, and turn our hearts toward others.
On Fast Sunday, we are invited to:
• Fast from food and drink for two meals, as health permits
• Pray with purpose and faith
• Give a generous fast offering to help those in need
As we keep the law of the fast, we can receive powerful blessings—including greater spiritual strength, increased self-discipline, peace and joy, greater humility, personal revelation, and a stronger relationship with God.
Our fasting can also bless someone else. A generous fast offering helps provide for people who are struggling and teaches us greater love and compassion for Heavenly Father’s children.
✨ This Fast Sunday, consider coming to your fast with a specific prayer, a person in mind, or a need you are seeking guidance about.
“Draw close to the Lord in humility and prayer.” (Elder Robert D. Hales, Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, “Becoming Provident Providers Temporally and Spiritually,” Ensign, May 2009, 9).
How has fasting blessed your life?
