A Tale of Two Tests

How do we as believers measure our spiritual growth? Put simply it is measured by our fruit and one way to produce fruit is to fast. Fasting is our way of putting our problems in the background and God in the foreground. Continuing the collection of talks “Day by Day” Pastor Manouchka Charles prompts us on the importance of fasting in the message “A Tale of Two Tests.” We are reminded that we can change our perspective to see fasting as an invitation to be more like Jesus. As we surrender our flesh we train our spiritual bodies to pray and open our hearts with compassion. This act demonstrates that discipline is possible and all we need is within reach as we lift our hands to the King of kings.
