Matthew 4:4 states, “man shall not live by bread alone but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God.” I am sure that we have all heard that scripture, but have we ever really stopped and thought about it. Our spirit man eats…. we actually have a spirit inside of us that needs to eat. We feed our physical bodies each day… more than once mind you, yet we so frequently forget that there is another feeding that needs to take place. If we could see our spirit… what would it look like. Would it look healthy, weak, fat, scraggly, fit, etc….. Do we even think about the health of our spirit. Do we think that once we are saved our spirit becomes perfect? We know that it becomes brand new… but even brand new babies without proper nutrition will not survive very long.

We are not only to live by bread, but also by the bread of life, the word of God. FUEL YOUR BODY… FUEL YOUR SPIRIT. I believe that we should take care of our physical bodies and eat healthy… I also think we should take care of our spirits the same way. I like those references about meditating on the Word… in other words chew slowly. Take one scripture and chew on it all day. Let it digest slowly into your spirit soaking in the spiritual nutrients that you need so desperately. This blog now has a daily scripture… just so we can all chew.

Happy eating.
