Have you read Isaiah 58?
Packed with solid info, what scrumptious sustenance lies before us ready to be consumed. His Glory is realized, even flourished, in our fasting or in honoring the day of shabbat, sabbath. It is not in what we give, however, but in what we give up. Actually, it seems His calling is our need to bring everything back to honoring Him and His Holiness. Our need to put ourselves in the back of the equation results His revealing essence.
When we take a step back from feeding our own hedonistic pleasures, our own tendencies, our own agendas, our ownselfs, we no longer limit the length and width of our usefulness in Him. We get that choice in our day to day lives... block His potential, or invite it. He yearns to use us, to be a vessel of provision for others. The really sweet aspect of giving up a thing or the honoring where honoring is deserved, all without any expected return, is in doing so His radiance shines so boldly that we can not help but benefit from His Glory personified.
I'm telling you this endless buffet of nutrition found in His word,will find you always going back for more. He just taste so heavenly.
