Fasting: Cherish Your Sacred Privilege

Fasting: Cherish Your Sacred Privilege

Elder Jeffrey R. Holland
“I bear witness of the miracles, both spiritual and temporal, that come to those who live the law of the fast. I bear witness of the miracles that have come to me. Truly, as Isaiah recorded, I have cried out in the fast more than once, and truly God has responded, ‘Here I am’ (Isaiah 58:9). Cherish that sacred privilege at least monthly, and be as generous as circumstances permit in your fast offering and other humanitarian, educational, and missionary contributions. I promise that God will be generous to you, and those who find relief at your hand will call your name blessed forever.”
Elder Jeffrey R. Holland of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, “Are We Not All Beggars?” Ensign, Nov. 2014, 42.
