Fasting (MAT 6:16-18)

[6:16] “And when you fast, do not look gloomy like the hypocrites, for they disfigure their faces that their fasting may be seen by others. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward.

[6:17] But when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face,

[6:18] that your fasting may not be seen by others but by your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you.
