Dealing With Life While Fasting
It's never a good time to block out life and fast. So how do you commit and not be swayed? I don't know if I really have any answers, but the phrase- Just do it! You HAVE TO PREPARE! Food wise you need to know exactly what you are going to give up and not "revise" the plan halfway through when it gets hard. Schedule wise, it's so important to plan as best you can to save all non-essentials for another week and then just shut yourself away for several short periods each day. I know that's not always possible. Lastly you need to prepare spiritually. You need to know why you are doing this and write down that purpose as well as prayer goals to focus on. You need to know that Satan will make sure that something comes up, probably every day, that makes you say- Well, maybe next week or next year would be better...God has promised in His Word to reward those who fast (and pray and give- Matt.6) so I'm not waitin' any longer for my reward. The time is now!
