"But Daniel resolved not to defile himself with the royal food and wine... ...please test your servants for ten days: Give us nothing but vegetables to eat and water to drink... ...At the end of the ten days they looked healthier and better nourished than any of the young men who ate the royal food. So the guard took away their choice food and the wine they were to drink and gave them vegetables instead. "
~ Daniel 1: 8-16 ~
We were reading and discussing about Daniel during cell last sunday, and dunno why these verses about Daniel and his friends having only veg+water, instead of the wonderous food of the King's table, spoke to me, and i was thinking, for fun, maybe i should try.
yup. the 'Daniel fast' - fasting from luxurious food, from meat, from sweet drinks, from the enjoyment of food, and just having vegetables and water. yup! i have decided to go on the what i call 'Daniel fast', not totally fasting from food, but lotsa food and types, starting today (since it's already past midnight).
Fasting from:
meat, egg, ice cream, soft drinks, sweet drinks, curry, chocolates, cookies, cakes, kuis, peanut butter, nutella, any spread of any kind...
Permittable items:
rice, noodles, bread, PLAIN biscuits, cereals, milo/ovaltine(since milo very recently seemed to be chased away by ovaltine and i need my energy drink), milk, water, fruits, vegetables, sweets(to stay alert during lectures), tea(green tea & my ginseng tea).
