Feast on God this Thanksgiving

I hope everyone has had a great thanksgiving this year. We enjoyed a wonderful dinner for the first time in Marcie's house since Katrina. I read a great article on fasting that Spoke to me during this season. We always give thanks to God for giving us so much by feasting on delicious Food. After reading this article I thought a little differently about it. It spoke of how when we fast for God we need Him to nourish us as we refrain from eating. In doing so we should be feasting on God in our life and for the lives of others. It spoke of how when we feast on food we are always satisfied afterwards, but when we feast on God we always want more of Him for His nourishment always satisfies but also sparks an unquenchable desire for more of Him. This spiritual discipline should draw us closer and closer to Him and further form the nessecity on food. Jesus speaks of the importance of spiritual food in Mathew 4:4 as He quotes Deuteronomy 8:3

"Man does not live on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of the Lord."
We should be giving thanks this season for the food we need to live, but even greater we should be giving thanks to Him for His word and in fasting and prayer we can be fed by His word and His presence that greater things can come to pass in our lives. So my prayer for you all is to show your thanks for God by looking inward, and relying on Him for not just food, but spiritual nourishment as well. Remember, He is enough for us, all of us. John 6:35
“I am the bread of life. He who comes to me will never go hungry, and he who believes in me will never be thirsty."
Give thanks ya'll, worship Him, and never go hungry again! Until next time... James
