“But let your fasts be moderate, since if they are carried to excess they weaken the stomach, and by making more food necessary to make up for it lead to indigestion, which is the parent of lust. A festival, temperate diet is good for both body and soul.” – St. Jerome #christianity #copticorthodox #coptic #dailyreading #lent #humility #fasting
