Pastor John,
Earlier today I saw this post on Instagram and it really struck me. I started thinking of where God has brought me from. For years I was sitting at a table, sick and starving for truth and didn’t even know it. I had so many questions. My heart yearned for answers. I desired the joy and peace I read about in the Bible.
Then, Jesus brought me here, opened my ears, my eyes and my heart to the truth. Now, my belly is full, my heart rejoices and my life is filled with peace. I am so thankful for His mercy on my life. I am so thankful for the good nourishing food we’re given and for the appetite Jesus has put in us.
The other night I fell asleep talking to Jesus, thanking him for my life. In the early morning hours, I woke and was praying for God’s children everywhere. There was such a sweetness in the feelings for His children. God really loves them! I’ve never had a prayer quite like that before.
I fell back asleep and later when I woke up all I could think about is us and what Jesus has given us. We have a smorgasbord for God’s children, if they would only eat.
