Changing Our Appetites

 

Your words were found,

and I ate them,

and Your words became to me

a joy and a delight of my heart,

for I  am called by Your name,

    O LORD, God of hosts.

              Jeremiah 15. 16

When God's Word becomes

   a joy and a delight to us,

   we pursue different things.

God changes our appetite.

We desire something deeper.

We want more of Him.

And nothing can remain

       the same.

O LORD,

You grant us the opportunity

        of Your Word every day.

And it is a a movable feast

that nourishes our very souls.

And influences everyone

       all around us.

Change our appetites,

                 O LORD,

by Your Word

        for Your will, 

        for Your ways,

        for Your glory.
