Give, Pray, Fast … naturally!

Morning: Psalms 93, 96; Esther 3:1-4:3; James 1:19-27

Jesus invites a fully human Way of Life. He assumes Life includes Giving, Praying and Fasting.  These are not moral obligations, but normal human actions, like breathing or sleeping.  So Jesus does not order us to Give, Pray or Fast but he does teach us how … not giving way to hypocrisy, ego or pride.  So Give naturally and gratefully, from the abundant gifts you have received. Pray naturally, seeking guidance and strength for living. Fast in the natural attitude of moderation you bring to everything.  Give, Pray, Fast … What else would you do!? How is the charm.
