What is so good about fasting? Why fast?
Fasting brings you closer to God, and your faith goes to another level, it is good when you depend only on the Word of God as your food and the energy of communion is overwhelming. It opens you to God's presence and you grow more knowing that He is real. We fast because we need to be broken to feel God, and to humble ourselves. Fasting deals with committment and trust in God, dependent only on Him and not on food, it also proves what God can do for you when you are willing to sacrifice things of this world, to concentrate only on Him. The reward is great, you are able to walk in this world knowing "He is with you ALWAYS!!"

What makes it so difficult to love our enemies? Bonus Question: What happens when we love our enemies?

If you do not have love in your heart, if you do not believe in God and if you keep dwelling on the wrong someone do to you, for me, that make it difficult to love youe enemies.

When we love our enemies that mean we are able to forgive and move on, we can also ask God to give us the strength and ability to speak to that person about Jesus and the love He has for us even though we are sinners. We can encourage them to know who Jesus is and Jesus would bless us and reward us, for He said in His Word, 'you should love your enemies, bless those who curse you, and do good to those who hate you and pray for those who persecute you'.

Paul was a persecuter of believers but God spoke to him, blinded him, forgive him, and used him to do His work, later Paul promised to suffer for his King.

if we love Jesus we would not find it difficult to forgive, don't worry about the other person do your part.

 

Jesus loves us all, we can too.

Why is giving in secret more to be commended that giving where people can see it?

I think that when you give to someone, especially those in need, it should be kept amoung you, God and the receiver.This is so simply because the person might feel embarassed knowing that others are aware of there needs and also the Bible say don't let your left hand know what your right hand is doing. God promises to reward you when you do good deeds in secret because He sees and knows everything, He knows when we are genuine - that is giving freely from our hearts or if we are giving to be noticed.

Luke 6:38 Give and it will be given to you. Good measure pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.

Meaning when you give you will receive even more.
