                                                            Spiritual Renewal




Spiritual renewal is about how, or what we do to renew our spirit. To accomplish this we do many things, such as:

-Read the Bible
-Pray
-Go to church
-Fast
Among others.

Spiritual Renewal comes from religious beliefs of people, God, or the desire to better the soul or feel good with ourselves.  A lot of people are involve in religions and traditions.

There are many kind of
religion around the world, such as:

-Judaism
-Mormonism
-Islam
-Catholicism
-Evangelicals

As I explained before, fasting is one of the things people do to renew their spirit, and this is very popular. It is a period of time without
eating and drinking must of the day. People usually pray God in this activity. Nowadays fasting is necessary to find ourselves and to stay near God. Evangelicals people practice the tradition of fasting very often.

Due to religions, is common to find many ascetic people nowadays, for example:
These people don't drink alcohol, don't dance, and after all, they follow their religion.

Religions also have different days to do things, or to save
a day without any activity. For example:

 -Adventist: keep saturday
-Catholics: keeps sundays
-Mormons: fast the first sunday of every month.
-Islam: fast in their holy day which is call ¨Ramadan¨.

     There is a great controversy regarding the monitoring of jobs. Employers regularly feel the need to monitor their employees, because they are paying a time that must be used for the tasks for which they are paying.
