Herald Malaysia - daily news source with Malaysian and Global coverage of the Catholic Churches. Catholic News,World Christian News, Malaysia Church News

In my many years as a Catholic, I have tried to fast from many different things such as meat, coffee, sweets, or social media, particularly in the season of Lent.

What first struck me when I came across this Scripture passage, was how the people of Nineveh fasted, not so much to gain bragging rights or check off a Lenten practice, but to prevent destruction upon themselves. When I was led to reflect on what was really destroying me of late, I realised they were the many internal lies and scripts that have been wearing me down and taking my life away.

Eventually, upon reflecting and listening to His voice, this was the list that I came up with for Lent:FAST: I need to impact more numbers.FAST: Others are doing more / better than me.
