Starving

"People need more than bread for their life; they must feed on every word of God." Matthew 4:4

These words spoken by Jesus stir within me as I lay next to my one year old who is crying out for a drink and something to eat. As I begin praying for the Lord to remove these thoughts from his mind, my amazing Father leans down and whispers, "Fill him with my word." So I began singing scripture to him and before I knew it he had fallen back asleep.

It took a good full hour of off and on singing, because as we all know just one dose of Gods word is just not enough. But to my amazement after an hour of pulling from my resources within my sweet baby boy finally became full. For the first time this scripture came alive within my baby Dax and within me. 

Our God's fulfillment is so much more satisfying. Open up wide my friends and let the words of our Mighty God fill you up.
