When you fast it breaks your body down and humbles your spirit. You allow yourself to suffer a little bit. And we all know that when you suffer, you tend to lean on other people. That will bring you closer to God, because you learn through fasting to rely on him more. When you fast, he is the only one who can control your hunger. It makes us rely on him instead of ourselves. It's like when someone close to us dies-we find ourselves humbled and hurt and most people pray more when tragedy strikes. God allows those things to happen to bring us closer to him.
