There is an element to man that can’t be defined by natural verbage. An element that isn’t a construct of carnal fibers but of spiritual substance. We are spiritual beings wrapped in a fleshy vesture. As our body hungers for meat, so our soul hungers for communion with God. There is a place that you can find that will fill the void, that will satisfy the hunger.
Last night a young man told. “Some people think that religion is a man made effort for significance. To find meaning to life through a higher power.” I understand why people say that and why they may think that but I feel they are ingnoring the obvious. The hunger. When we hunger we eat. Hunger alerts our body to the need for nutrients. The mere existence of hunger means that there is something to be hungered for. Something outside of our reach or immediate grasp.
Hunger is powerful, it will cause a person to consume the deplorable. Few limits are placed on this basic need. My children often turn their noses up to certain types of food, I’ve also seen them eat without hesitation whatever is placed in front of them.
Man is needing communion with God. Man needs God. Not just any god. Yet we’ve all witnessed people who serve satan without restraint. I’ve personally witnessed many sincere people take hold of a lie and live it to the fullest. I’ve asked the Lord Jesus how people can be satisfied with such things? Their satisfaction is limited to their hunger. Like a child that fills themselves with “junk food” many people fill themselves with “junk science”, “junk philosophies”, and “junk religion”. It only satisfies for the moment but when the “junk” looses the juice- they crash.
The Bible is written for seekers only. For the hungry and thirsty. For the ones who are ready to take hold of rock solid truth, no matter how bitter it tastes at the moment. You see, I’ve seen people come to the table and are demanding God give them a gourmet meal to satisfy their “tastes” but God will only satisfy true spiritual hunger.
Are you hungry?
I recently revamped my personal photoblog and named it “Yon Forest.” I purchased the domain “YonForest.com” but have yet to attach it to my files. Click “HERE” to view Yon Forest and tell me what you think.
I got the title “Yon Forest” from one of my favorite songs from Woven Hand called “Down in Yon Forest.” It is my understanding that the song was originally an old English carol written over a hundred years ago. Woven Hand’s version is probably one of the most powerful songs that I have ever heard.
The photo entitled “Tresle Creek” was featured this week on KHQ Evening News. Meteorologist Brian Albrecht features photos, taken by area photographers, on TV in a segment he calls “Brian’s Weather Pictures”.
The template is still a bit under construction but I have got the meat and potatoes done.
I know this is a bit old but this was this first time I have ever read it. I heard Michael Savage talking about a essay entitled “On Sheep, Wolves, and Sheepdogs.” It’s actually out of the book, “On Combat” by Lt. Col (ret) Dave Grossman.
Dave Grossman is an internationally recognized scholar, trainer and speaker on the subjects of violence and human aggression and a Pulitzer Prize nominee for his book titled “On Killing“. He is currently the director of the Killology Research Group. You may find out more about the author, his books and calendar of speaking engagements on his website www.killology.com
Here are a few blurbs:
Here is how the sheep and the sheepdog think differently. The sheep pretend the wolf will never come, but the sheepdog lives for that day. After the attacks on September 11, 2001, most of the sheep, that is, most citizens in America said, “Thank God I wasn’t on one of those planes.” The sheepdogs, the warriors, said, “Dear God, I wish I could have been on one of those planes. Maybe I could have made a difference.” When you are truly transformed into a warrior and have truly invested yourself into warriorhood, you want to be there. You want to be able to make a difference.
“If you are a warrior who is legally authorized to carry a weapon and you step outside without that weapon, then you become a sheep, pretending that the bad man will not come today. No one can be “on” 24/7, for a lifetime. Everyone needs down time. But if you are authorized to carry a weapon, and you walk outside without it, just take a deep breath, and say this to yourself…”Baa.”
