Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.(Matthew 5:6 KJV
Cravings.
We all have them.
Can’t avoid them.
We have a longing for something.
They are linked to our physical appetite or an emotional need.
It is the seeking of that which is pleasing to the body and our feelings.
Having a desire to satisfy spiritual needs is something we all should desire.
There is nothing like being able to receive the blessings that come when we take care of the body and soul.
When we crave the right things.
We want to live a righteous life.
One that is all about doing the right thing.
Our deep spiritual longings have a desire to do what is right.
But it is not something that can be satisfied by anything the world has to offer.
Only by living according to the Word will our lives be filled with the blessings of the Lord.
In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus promised that those who hunger and thirst for righteousness shall be filled (Matthew 5:6).
All our spiritual longings should be a heartfelt desire to know God.
We just have to do our part.
Being the person who is humble.
One that is prayerful.
One that is truly seeking to know and please God.
When we learn how to do this, our lives change.
A WORD OF PRAYER
Savior, the Bread of Life is what You are. What You give us satisfies our hunger and thirst for righteousness. All that we need is always available. The blessings are ours. Thank You for them all.
In Jesus Name We Pray, Amen
