I have an unhealthy penchant for chocolate, coffee and pretty much any other food that is bad for you. So, like many, I have often fasted sweet treats in an attempt to spend more time feasting on God’s Word. However, a few Lents ago, I opted to abstain from something which, at the time, seemed like an easier option: being negative. No complaining, no speaking badly of anyone or anything, no negativity in any form.
