Fast From Formulas

John 18:10-11
 Drawing a sword, Peter cut off Malchus’ ear. Then Jesus healed Malchus (the man who had come to arrest him ) and rebuked Peter (the man who had risked defending Him). That exchange was upside-down for the disciples.  To know righteousness is to make it grow, not to avenge it.  
Reflection:  The gifts of God grow by exercising and resting them.  Resting is  a form of discipline and prayer.  Think about your greatest strengths and consider how frequently you rest them.  
Fast: Fast from formulas or to “always” or “never.”   Jesus did not always follow the customs of the day.  In the same way, do not allow others to restrict the freedoms given you by Christ.
