"To the brothers, though, who cannot fast because of bodily illness,
encourage them not to abandon this spiritual word, teaching them and
passing on to them all the things we say here, showing them that he who
eats and drinks with moderation is not unworthy to hear these things but he
who is indifferent and slack. You should tell them the bold and daring
saying that, 'He who eats for the glory of the Lord eats and he who does
not eat for the glory of the Lord does not eat and pleases God."

St. John Chrysostom, On Fasting.

"Oh, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How
unsearchable are His judgments and His ways past finding out!" Romans 11:33

Draw nigh unto God and He will draw nigh unto you.
