HUNGER: being fed and never full
I dont now how to say what I feel right now. I will try in few words, but it won't be enough.
Today, on my 24th birthday, I have so much to be thankful for. There are the most obvious blessings: a husband, son, home, provision, etc., etc... But today, I must say I am HUNGRY, and so thankful that I am. I am constantly being filled with things from the Father, and unfortunately, sometimes things of the world too. But I am allowing the Lord to weed those things out more and more. But no matter how much I am filled lately, I am STARVING. I need God. I'm desperate.
Part of me longs to look back on days gone by and taste the food I was fed then that was so satisfying. But something in my inner-person says there's more. God wants to feed me...to feed you. He wants to feed NEW FOOD. My only prayer is to be available and prepared when God provides the next meal. I don't want to miss it. Unless I am fed by Him, I have no worth, no strength, power, or authority.
Forgive the long metaphore, but I don't know how else to say this. I simply want my appetite to work for me, for my hunger to urge me on (Proverbs 16:26) Let your hunger urge you. Get hungry with me.
