With the Feast of the Ascension behind us, we now return to fasting on Friday following the tradition of the church. Eat and drink nothing with calories in it until 5 PM. Focus your attention on the other forms of sustenance you find in the day–conversations with friends, a quick prayer, a reading. What sustains you beyond food? What are the specific ways you live on more than bread alone?
