'This fasting...is very good, provided the commandments of the Lord be observed...First of all, be on your guard against every evil word, and every evil desire, and purify your heart from all the vanities of this world. If you guard against these things, your fasting will be perfect.' - The Shepherd of Hermas
Description: “Most of those who fail to experience the joy of the Lord have refused to take up a cross!” - Walter J. Chantry #joy #cross #followingjesus
