Your words were found
and I ate them,
and Your words
became to me a joy
and the delight of my heart,
for I am called by Your name.
O LORD, God of hosts.
Jeremiah 15. 16
(These words are not just
the words of people,
but the very words of God.
Do we treat scripture
like that,
as God's word to us,
His strength within?
God changes not just
our hearts and minds
through His Word.
He changes our appetite.)
O LORD,
Help us to realize
that You reveal Yourself
through Your Word.
You give us strength
and hope through it.
You nourish and sustain us.
You alter significantly
what we desire,
what we seek,
and what we pursue.
We can't get enough of You.
And through it,
You radically change
the course of our lives.
