“When you fast… don’t make it obvious.”
— Matthew 6:16 (Paraphrased)
🔈 Quiet Hunger for God
Fasting is between you and God. It’s not about looking holy—it’s about becoming hungry for the things that last. Jesus says to keep it low-key. No show, no drama. Just focus.
Let fasting be worship, not performance.
🖊 Real Talk:
- Have I ever fasted to look spiritual?
- What would it look like to fast secretly and sincerely?
✨ Try This:
Pick something to fast from—social media, snacks, music—for one day this week. Use the time to pray and read Scripture. Tell no one.
✍️ Prayer:
God, I want more of You. Teach me to fast in a way that pleases You, not people. Amen.

I’m a follower of Christ, learning daily to walk the narrow path laid out in His Word. Through Rooted & Raised: Anchoring Women & Children in Christ, I simply seek to point others back to Scripture, tested by the Holy Spirit, lived out in faith, and anchored in truth.
● This space isn’t about lofty theology or grand platforms. It’s about humble obedience, Kingdom living, and helping others, especially women and families, rediscover the kind of faith that bears fruit, costs something, and reflects the love of Christ. My heart is to encourage others as I learn, grow, and surrender alongside them.
