About
I AM AN 80 YEAR OLD MALE, BORN AGAIN, CHRISTIAN WITH A LOVE FOR JESUS. I DO NOT GET OUT MUCH ANYMORE BUT FIND THAT TELLING PEOPLE ABOUT THE LOVE JESUS HAS FOR THEM IS NOT ONLY WHAT WE ARE SUPPOSED TO DO BUT SOMETHING THAT THE WORLD NEEDS.

ARE YOU BEING NOURISHED
ARE YOU BEING NOURISHED
I WROTE SOMETIME BACK ABOUT FITNESS, BOTH PHYSICAL AND SPIRITUAL. NOW I WANT TO TALK ABOUT BEING HUNGRY AND THIRSTY. WE ALL KNOW THAT WE HAVE TO EAT TO SURVIVE AND WE CAN'T GO TOO MANY DAYS WITHOUT WATER THIS IS THE PHYSICAL SIDE OF OUR BODY.
NOW LET'S LOOK AT WHAT JESUS SAYS ABOUT THE SPIRITUAL SIDE OF BEING HUNGRY AND THIRSTY. IN THE BEATITUDES, WHICH IS FOUND IN MATTHEW 5:1-11, JESUS TEACHES US IN VERSE 6 "Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled." JESUS PROMISES US THAT IF WE ARE HUNGRY FOR HIM, WE WILL BE FILLED.
I KNOW I USE THIS VERSE A LOT BUT IT IS IMPORTANT AND IN MATTHEW 11:29 JESUS SAYS TO "learn of me". TO DO THIS YOU MUST GET INTO THE BIBLE AND START STUDYING. YOU CAN LISTEN TO HUNDREDS OF TEACHING TAPES AND READ HUNDREDS OF BOOKS BUT THERE IS NO BETTER WAY THAN THE BIBLE. THIS IS HOW HE TALKS TO US, NOT THROUGH SOMEONE ELSE'S TEACHINGS OR BOOKS. JESUS IS THE WORD AND THIS IS WHAT OUR DIET SHOULD BE. HE EVEN TELLS US THIS IN JOHN 6:35 WHERE HE SAYS "I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst." WE NEED THAT NOURISHMENT OF HIS WORD EVERY DAY TO HAVE A SPIRIT FILLED LIFE. THIS IS WHAT I WANT, HOW ABOUT YOU?
FOR YOU WHO ARE NOT CHRISTIANS AND FEEL A NEED TO GET INTO THE BIBLE AND START STUDYING IT, YOU ARE VERY BLESSED BECAUSE GOD IS EVIDENTLY DRAWING YOU TO HIM. DON'T LET THIS SLIP AWAY. JESUS SAYS IN JOHN 6:44 THAT "No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day." THIS IS YOUR TIME SO PLEASE CONSIDER THE COST IF YOU PASS THIS UP. I AM PRAYING FOR YOU.
GOD BLESS YOU ALL.
