28:20 Then Saul went down flat on the earth, and was full of fear because of Samuel's words: and there was no strength in him, for he had taken no food all that day or all that night. Lately, especially today....I feel just that hungry for Jesus. A spiritual hunger. I've noticed in my life recently, as I've graduated highschool and put my 2 weeks in at my restaurant job only to begin a full time Nanny job, that I am CRAZY busy. I never run out of patience with my Junior High students, or for that matter, with any of my friends. I have been lately. They've all been...."annoying". So, since I'm so used to running and running, the second I get an ounce of free time what do I do? Fill it up! I'm instantly calling someone to fill my time with their company. I never looked at it as a bad thing until I realized that that minimal amount of free time He's given me........................is for Him. So today I decided to be more responsible with
God's time. Use it wisely, and sparingly. I need to become a better steward. Yeah, I may not LONG for Jesus like I sometimes do, but my heart MUST be because my fruit is not so ripe. So, like Saul....I haven't been feeding myself enough, therefore starving myself to weakness and temptation.
It's amazing.
So Father, let this be a reminder to life my time up to you. A time to remember that it is Your time to spend. I ask for your grace that I....WE may thirst and hunger after you DAILY. And as we feed ourselves, maybe your Word speak TRUTH into our lives and RIPEN our hearts. Amen. |
