I not only made it through the week but with the Lord’s persistant prodding I was
able to make the connection between my physical and spiritual health. My not
ingesting enough protein in my body caused me to be hungry and not satisfied.
The same was happening in my spirit. I was not getting enough spiritual meat to
sustain me and I was running on empty.
Translated that means that I was needing to go much deeper and higher with the
Lord than I have been. My daily readings, prayers, and fellowship were just not
enough. I was hungry for more. My spirit was starving just like my body was
starving.
Even as God is intentional, we who are created in His image must also be
intentional. Intentional about our relationship and our growth in Him.
Just getting by is no longer going to work for me because I want and need more.
What seems to be working for me is to be in His presence and just be silent with
Him. That fills my spirit like a good steak fills my body.
Bon Apetit
