Daily Renewal

Life is so cyclical! Whether we grab a bologna sandwich or dine on a gourmet meal, we'll get hungry and need to eat again. No matter if we've gotten the best night of sleep ever, no distractions, perfect bed conditions, sweet dreams....still gotta sleep again! And I've noticed that much of our preparations must center on meeting these basic physical needs....in the planning of events, trips, and activities.

So let's take this to a spiritual level...and I must ask myself, do I hunger and thirst after righteousness and the Word of God on such a regular, routine basis? Do I seek to rest in Him daily? I just get so frustrated with how basic and "down to earth" I always end up being, rather than looking at things from the spiritual point-of-view!

My prayer, Lord, help me starve for Your Word and long for Your rest and comfort....
