Good morning, Pastor John.<\/span><\/p>\n

I love what you said last night about how if a plant became an animal, it would want to eat grass, and if an animal became a human, it would want human food, and if humans became angels, we would want angel food!\u00a0\u00a0Jesus filled us with His Spirit, and now we want to eat what Jesus eats.\u00a0\u00a0We really are not human anymore \u2013 at least our hearts are not!\u00a0\u00a0These human bodies have to eat this worldly food to keep going, but what Jesus gives us is what makes us live!<\/span><\/p>\n

Oh, Pastor John, that is so good to me! It deepened the feeling of Psalm 74:19: “Oh, do not put the life of Your turtledove into a creature, a creature among Your afflicted people! Do not ever forget!”<\/span><\/p>\n

Whew!\u00a0\u00a0We really were born again with new hearts and new natures.\u00a0\u00a0We do not belong in this old world.\u00a0\u00a0And how can death have a sting when we know that!<\/span><\/p>\n

I love how right that feels!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Psa. 63:5\u00a0“My soul will be satisfied as with the best food and abundance.\u00a0\u00a0And with joyful lips, my mouth will praise you\u00a0and abundance.”<\/span><\/p>\n

Psa. 78:18\u00a0“And they tempted God in their heart by asking for food according to their own will.”<\/span><\/p>\n

Jn.\u00a04:32\u00a0“But he said to them,\u00a0‘I have food to eat that you don\u2019t know about.’\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Jn. 4:34 “Jesus said to them, ‘My food is to do the will of Him who sent me and to finish His work.”<\/span><\/p>\n

Jn. 6:27\u00a0“Do\u00a0not labor for food that perishes, but for food that endures unto eternal life, which the Son of man will give you, for God the Father has sealed him.”<\/span><\/p>\n
