hunger pangs.

its truly amazing how God speaks?
sometimes you really really
just cannot anticipate
which way He's coming from!

anw, as i was queuing up for lunch just now
i saw dis plate that was lying on the floor.
i guess somebody finished eating
and just left it at the doorway for collection..

so i was thinking abt some stuffs,
and den i saw dis purple plate and silver spoon.
there was only a grain of rice left over,
and everything else was shiny.

so i was thinking,
wah, that fella must be starving!
eat until so clean,
DEN RIGHT!!

suddenly a thought just came,
out of nowhere!
"don't you think it applies the same?"
like, huh?

and as i was thinking and thinking,
den i just nodded wif a smirk and looked away.
as if a wargamer won the war,
after his prediction came true!

now, the message is dis.
meals are essential for any living thing in the world.
whether you take 1 meal a day, or 5 meals a day,
you've to admit that you need food to sustain.

to some, it might be for growth.
to some, it may be for enjoyment.
commonly said, some live to eat.
others eat to live..

the hungrier we get,
the more we crave for food.
we eat, because we haf to.
we eat, to keep us alive.

sometimes we eat out of obligation,
just so that LATER we won't get hungry.
but we've to admit,
we've gotta eat!

shouldn't our spiritual life be the same?
shouldn't it be natural for us
to be hungry for more of God's spiritual food,
usually referred to as, the Living Word..

when we're hungry spiritually,
we yearn for more!
knowing we need it to stay spiritually healthy!
or so that we won't be 'starving' spiritually later..

and when we're hungry,
we'll eat everything up.
clean and digested..
and also, satisfied!

but why are some of us not craving for His Word?
isn't it strange?
if we say we're 'living testimonies',
shouldn't be get hungry sometime soon?

those of us who nvr yearns to read the Bible,
or whose of us who nvr needs to pray.
ask ourselves,
are we still 'alive' in Christ..

for those of us who're constantly hungry!
pace yourself!
eat slowly,
and let God help you digest to its fullest content!

don't gobble up so fast,
that sometimes you miss the point.
in everything,
do it moderately.
