Thoughts on fasting Christs death and resurrection of the most important events in world history , our faith is based on evidence of the existence of God and the love of our lives and our decisions compass . All our thoughts , we BACKGROUND effort should be . Annually celebrate this time and time again as a basis for reflection on the meaning of our lives . Lent this holiday for 40 days in preparation. Today, virtually abolished Lent : Lent only two days , Ash Wednesday and Good Friday . ( Friday meat ban , for example . Instead of fried meat fried fish , but rather a gesture, which is a good thing, but not fast . ), I do not know whether there is a formal justification of the Church part of why it was wrong of fasting ( patients , elderly, small children , physically demanding occupations are of course other cases ) . The Lenten days, three meals , be full -time is not a terrible ordeal, but very inconvenience . One could say that all suffering / discomfort is definitely bad, the pleasure is definitely good - but it was not true . Sense of suffering a separate section , but noted that a child is experiencing a nuisance , you are not allowed to do dangerous things , or educational purposes punished , the physical pain is bad , but without it, for example . elfüstölnénk hands leaning against a radiator , a high mountain by climbing around and admiring the landscape is not the same as if a helicopter had been there and I would look around etc. . ( Suffering is often the result of their own or another s sin , it could well be a separate section.) . Pursue the pleasures overboard can lead megcsömörléshez , depression and suicide. The following are tried without exhaustive collect some points , we can make sense of fasting . - Christs death and resurrection can not be overstated. It would be unworthy of a five -minute or one -hour commemoration of Christs death and resurrection . The 40-day preparation for the event demonstrates the importance of . - Fasting gives a certain tone , the background of our attention there will be a great idea for Friday and Easter Sunday . - A fun, eating , drinking and other guilty pleasures is neither things nor necessarily good things , but in any event for the entertainment of our thoughts often engaging . Ignore these thoughts in time and space leaves space that essential things to rethink . - Jesus suffering is not comparable to the problems of the three meals and one jóllakással , but it can feel a little better together if we undertake this (or other discomfort ) . - After 40 days of fasting in the celebration even more contrast , more joy. Even better is the feast , as if we were sitting a table full stomach . ( Similarly . Wedding night also true if the parties have not lived together before ) - There is something transcendent meaning to the specific material / benefit lacking self-control. Because so many aspects of this world assume abstinence discomfort , suffering eg. women undertake fasting for the flat if offended , others work overtime to pleasure , property money can be spent . Its cool that there is no such tangible benefits of fasting . - Perhaps , like the muscular force of will also be developed , if willpower - deployed is performed . Or conversely, if you never do such a thing , the will probably weakened . In life, certain that we will be hard , suffering , illness - maybe this is prepared for fasting, then you better wear it . - A hurt ( suffering) may be offered some greater good : we do not know exactly how it works , but the good Lord will surely get it. - The restriction of eating ( some obscure ) can be obtained impression of what it might be fast ( although this is far from hunger fast ) . I can feel the hungry together. - It is interesting to experience how well it is a small piece of dry heel at this time. This will help you to evaluate some things . - Trying to be ourselves , how strong we are to endure the difficulties. Many people like to try everything. How much discomfort is fashionable : extreme sports , amusement parks instruments of torture and so on . Fasting is free can be tested. - The health aspects are not very interesting. I do not think that it would be detrimental to the health of the 40 days of fasting and a few kg weight loss. I do not think it possible that healthy as well ( detox ? ), Although this is not the purpose of fasting : its just the hundredfold it (Mark 10:29-30 ), which brings . The above list is no exhaustive list can be further expanded . But instead, I suggest you to try what a little to fast
