Q: Note that fasting as a Christian means to humble yourself before Him. It is a way to glorify our Lord. Keep these aspects in mind while you fast. Don't confuse this with any other reasons for fasting such as weight loss, etc. Center it around Jesus. before your fast. Pray, confessing every one of your sins, and inviting the Holy Spirit to lead your life. Let Jesus know you wish to know Him personally. Acknowledge that He lived without sin, died in our place, on the cross for our sins and rose 3 days later, freeing us from condemnation, and giving us His free gift of eternal life. Humble yourself to ask forgiveness from everyone you have hurt; ask forgiveness from God. Forgive those who have hurt you. You do not want to enter into a fast holding grudges, carrying envy, pride, anger or hurt. The enemy will try to use those things to distract you from your fast. These may include the ability to forgive, His strength or wisdom, His peace, the capacity to love unconditionally, etc. Praise Him for these attributes! Surrender your life and thank Him for all He has done for you! You may wish to try a shorter fast, and start slowly at first, if you have not previously fasted.  You can also pray and ask the Holy Spirit to reveal to you how long you should fast. You may feel that the Holy Spirit calls you to a specific type of fast. A partial fast may mean giving up only certain types of foods. Juice fasts remove the pleasure of chewing any type of solid food, yet fruit and vegetable juices are permitted. In an absolute fast one abstains from solid and liquid "foods" -- for example, fruit juices are foods -- but, water is essential for life much as breathing, as one may go into a foggy mental state, then coma and die after a mere 2 or 3 days of dehydration.
A: Hold the right motives. Pray Meditate on the Gospel, and on the Holy traits of our Lord. Determine the length of your fasting experience, whether this is for 1 meal, 1 day, 3 days or a week (Jesus and Moses fasted for a period of 40 days, but that is no sign that anyone else might do that). Note the type of fast you are being called to. Drink enough water to support life, since it is not a food, observing this Absolute Caution:

Q: In the mornings and evenings, spend about 10-15 minutes talking to your hamster in a gentle voice in order to get it used to your voice. Sit very still next to the cage and simply talk quietly and happily about whatever you want! Singing quietly to your hamster, without dramatically changing the key or volume of your voice, is also a good means of acclimating the hamster to your voice. This will help the hamster get used to your physical presence, as well as not be afraid of your hand. Don’t try to touch or pet your hamster when you place your hand in the cage; just let it sniff you and learn that you’re not a threat.  Don’t start putting your hand in the cage until the hamster has had 2-3 days to get used to its new home. There’s no time limit on leaving your hand inside the cage. However, if your hamster seems agitated by your presence, or just wants to go to sleep, you should probably leave it alone for now. Make sure to wash your hands first! Even a faint food smell may cause your hamster to nip at your hand. Also, if you have been handling other pets, then this may be threatening to your hamster. While you’re letting your hamster get used to its cage and your presence during this first week, avoid doing anything that will scare it. If your hamster learns to associate you with fear now, it will be much more difficult and time-consuming to tame. This also goes for speaking too loudly around your hamster or moving the cage with the hamster inside it. If you have to move the cage, transfer your Robo hamster to a smaller holding cage first.
A: Spend some time talking gently to the hamster for the first week. Leave your hand in the cage and let your hamster come to you. Refrain from touching the hamster or making sudden movements.

Q: Use clean water, as you'll be consuming the pomegranate seeds. Add enough water to the bowl to cover both halves of the pomegranate. After it's been in the water for a few minutes, you'll start to see the white parts, called the pith, floating away from the pomegranate. As it does, the seeds will come out. Take out the skin, then skim off the white pith. Throw these in your compost or trash bin. Then, slowly pour the water and pomegranate seeds over a kitchen strainer. This will collect the seeds, which you can place in a bowl for use.
A:
Fill a large bowl with fresh, cool water. Place the 2 halves in the water. Strain the pomegranate seeds into a bowl.
