Your words were found, and I ate them, And Your word was to me the joy and rejoicing of my heart; For I am called by Your name, O Lord God of hosts.”
Jeremiah 15:16 NKJV
The greatest nourishment to my soul is the Word of God. Many people don’t make it part of their diet. As a result the joy and rejoicing of heart mentioned by Jeremiah is missing.
Just like in a physical diet, if I fill myself with spiritual junk food I will ruin my appetite for God’s Word. What junk food am I putting into my spirit? Self-help philosophies? Political philosophies? Pseudo-Christian philosophies? Conspiracy theories? Others?
What is the spiritual nutritional value of the things I put into my spirit?
Jesus, Feed me with Your Word. Strengthen me with joy and rejoicing of heart.
