For the past three days I have been doing a minor juice fast, if it could even be considered a fast. I have been using our juicer to make a hearty juice once or twice each day. Then for dinner I have a light and healthy meal.
This morning I realized that tonight is the night that Jesus and his Apostles would have had the last supper. Coincidentally, I am spending the evening with friends and will be enjoying a nice dinner. In a totally unrelated purpose of gathering, by the way. It's movie night :-P.
I decided that in the Spirit of the Nazarite I want to observe this year's Resurrection Day in a more interactive style. So. Last minute I have decided to do a full fast from Friday until Sunday, honoring the days that Jesus spent being dead. This may be tough since I have performances of Robin Hood all weekend. I may not be able to do it safely, in which case I will eat something if the situation becomes unsafe. I would like to make it though.
It's certainly not a new tradition I am going to keep every year, but it seemed appropriate to try out this year.
