But He answered and said, 'It is written, 'Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.' Matthew 4:4
Have you ever tired fresh bread that has just come out from the oven? CAn you remember that fragrance? Can you remember the aroma of flour, egg, sugar evenly mixed to create the staple diet of our lives every day?
- I don't know about you girls but I absoultely love love love bread!!!- the pastry kind :)
Imagine a slice of cheese melting on top of that hot peice of bread. (i know daphne is drooling :) haha) How about a cup of freshly brewed coffee to accompany it? Thinking about this reminds us of the thrill of having a wonderful breakfast every morning before we go to work.
Friends, this is how our quiet time ought to be every day, so that even as we prepare our hearts well, just as how we would prepare a porper breakfast, there will be magic every time we spend this personal time with our Lord.
We do not yield to our physical needs alone. Jesus said that man shall live by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God. His words give strength to our spiritual body. They are life to our spirit. They help us to be strong when times are hard and challenging. They help us stay focused. They cause us not to shake even when the earth is trembling.
Take away the word of God, and all of us will be humans without a soul. Therefore, prepare a good breakfast now, and get ready to encounter the God who created you!!!
