The Difference Between Fasting and Abstinence

Lent is a time that again brings before our attention what's required of us by church law. The point on these days is to feel hungry, right? Yes. To notice it. And I think a lot of times too like it can creep in that one of the goals of our life is to never feel hungry. That feeling originates in our fallen nature which wants to be coddled and comfortable. It will not cease until such time as it gets its every need attended to immediately and abundantly.
