Such a deep and inspiritational piece.

In fact, Isaiah further clarifies that there is a type of fasting that is far better than not eating.

Fasting that is better than not eating

Do not forget that Fasting is not merely abstaining from food, water or other pleasurable things, it is also and more importantly abstaining from quarrelling, fighting and other acts of wickedness. According to Isaiah in today’s first reading, these vices make our fasting null and void.

Fasting is not just abstaining from food only.*
