God Is ... Through MatthewSample

God is . . . Nourishment

“Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.” Matthew 5:6 NIV

It is easy to give in to the temptation to spend too much time on things that distract you from time with God. Your day is filled with responsibilities, which may serve a good purpose, but overextending yourself or spreading yourself too thin may result in having no room for God to pour His love and truth into you.

Without taking time daily to meditate or reflect on the Word, you will find yourself losing spiritual momentum. Take time to digest God’s word — as if it were food — and so refresh your mind daily with His presence and His love for you.

What can you remove from your schedule in order to make more room for God to pour Himself in?

Prayer:

Lord, make me an empty container for Your presence. Fill me up with Your love and refresh my mind with your truth. I long to be transformed in my mind and spirit so that I can accomplish the purposes for which you created me. Amen in Jesus’ name.
