How do we become hungry for the Word of God, why is it that I don’t hunger after it like I do many other things. I believe that it is necessary for my spiritual health, so I do study the Word, but there are many other things I’d rather do. I hope that my desire for the Word will grow.

I need to spend more time with God. It’s so simple to say but so much harder to do. I have a hunger a better relationship with God but I fail to satisfy this hunger. It seems that every time I have time to read my Bible or pray, I think of a thousand other “better” things to do.
I’m not against Bibles with advice, beauty tips, etc.; they actually sometimes help me make the first step of opening my Bible. At the same time, I need to get more involved in my quiet time with God.
I just get so…bored.

Once again, Brett and Alex, another incredible post!!!!
I will always notice when I skip lunch, and, just recently, I have also begun to notice when I skip my devotions, too.
For the first time in a while today, I was unable to do my devotions at my normal time (in the morning) and I felt guilty as I sat playing a game on my laptop. I shamfully ran up to my room, grabbed my Bible, my highlighter and pencil, “Do Hard Things” and several other devotionals.
It’s a little scary! Once you get so used to doing devotions, and loving it, (REALLY loving it!) you can’t do without at least some form of “spiritual nibble”, as you so tastefully put it!
As always, thanks for another masterpeice to add to my mental inventory!

You’re not the only ones who sometimes put physical hunger before spiritual hunger, thanks for the reminder.

P.S

Nice analogy It’ something I can relate to well.

[...] About food, apparently you abstain from food to declare your dependence on God, the provider of your everything. In this article, comparing physical hunger and spiritual hunger show us parallels we can draw. [...]

my friend and i were just talking about this, and I agree. When I don’t spend enough time reading the Bible and thinking about what I read in the morning or whenever, it messes up my day and I feel icky-run down and grumpy. I will pray for you guys, that your spiritual hunger gets easier to notice…and that you feed it right away

How funny! I just posted about bread/the Word of God and then I found this. I have added a link to my blog, that’s for sure.

I wholeheartedly agree!!! More Christians need to develope a hunger for God’s word.
