My Diet

1 Peter 2:2
Like newborn babies, crave pure spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow up in your salvation,
1 Peter 2:3
now that you have tasted that the Lord is good.

I go through stages, sometimes really struggling with my eating, and other times not so much. But it is always difficult to discern when the food is delightful and yummy, and I am filling something other than my tummy, and when I am just eating to survive. I almost can't truly enjoy a chocolate chip cookie, some ice cream, or something chocolate without it becoming more than just food. And this bothers me.

I have tried to pray before eating anything, thanking the Lord for His provision. This week I was reading the verses I quote above, desiring to "taste that the Lord is good." I want that to be my daily "diet." Craving spiritual growth. Craving the Lord. More of Him and less of me.
