serve me while I eat and drink

Yes, I know there are reasons for it. Just unsure what it accomplishes. Test of faith? Test of devotion? Test of sacrifice? I mean, there are other ways such tests are accomplished.

The end result is usually concentration on everything but God. On the pangs. On the pains. On the cravings. Test of focus, maybe? If it's a prayer thing, this only adds a layer of distraction. Wouldn't you rather be sated and focused on prayer than famished and distracted in prayer?

Powerful weapon, I'll take your word on it. But if impossible to use, hard to be well-prepared.
