Matthew 6:16-18 –––––––––

6:16 And when you fast, do not look gloomy like the hypocrites, for they disfigure their faces that their fasting may be seen by others. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward.

6:17 But when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face,

6:18 that your fasting may not be seen by others but by your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you.
