Friends, Ive been fasting from solid foods for the past week. I didnt start this fast for any deep spiritual reason. I started because my oral surgery last week requires it--for eight weeks! Yesterday, though, I realized Im fasting. I was watching the news when a report came on about this incident. I wept. I dont mean a lone glistening tear trailing down my cheek. I ugly cried. Then, as I was trying to fall asleep I remembered it and cried again. Then, just now, riding in a cab I remembered the childrens screams from the back seat of their parents car, as the police broke the window on their fathers side, tased him, dragged him out of the car, and arrested him--for NO REASON!!!!!!!!! Fasting cuts the spirit, sensitizing the faster to injustice. It helps align our hearts with the heart of God. Heres what my heart feels this morning: rage. Watch. Weep. Fast with me.
