[QUOTE="Berserk, post: 77189663, member: 294441"] I have a ferocious appetite; so I have rarely fasted. But when I have, I experienced by far the spiritual highlights of my life, without which I doubt a natural skeptic like me would even be a Christian today. But I don't recommend fasting for you yet. Please explore the 10-day regimen I suggested first, taking notes on your lasting reactions and issues raised. I believe doing so will create the right kind of open curiosity, longing, and sense of wonder that God can use to communicate with you. I have a Harvard doctorate in biblical studies and Judaism; so I tend to live in my head too much. That said, I have learned that it is easier to feel your way to God than to think your way to God, despite the misleading dangers of reliance on feelings (wishful thinking, etc.). [/QUOTE]
