Fasting
Secret Devotion and Trust · Matthew 6
Story guide: A man washes his face in private, picturing Jesus’s instruction not to display fasting.
Open this scene in the reader →14For if you forgive people their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.
15But if you do not forgive people, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
16And whenever you fast, do not look gloomy like the hypocrites, for they disfigure their faces so that they may appear to people to be fasting. Truly I say to you, they have received their reward in full.
17But you, when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face,
18so that you may not appear to men to be fasting, but to your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you.
