The Bread of Life

My wife makes the most amazing salads. They’re delicious. Best salads I’ve ever tasted. Me, I’m not much of a salad guy. I see all those leaves 🍃 and emotionally it just doesn’t move me. I’d rather have air-fried chicken. But I know - cognitively that the salad is delicious. I sit at the dinner table, burdened by a plate full of leaves knowing that if I let just one ☝️ lettuce 🥬 pass my brown lips I’ll dive in and enjoy the whole thing. Once I overcome my reservations not only am i pleasantly surprised but my body rejoices from of all the fresh goodness!

I find it amusingly similar to my experience of reading the Bible/spending time in God’s presence. I distract myself with air-fried chicken on YouTube, the Flix, and Stabmag. When I eventually dive into God’s word it’s my soul that rejoices.

Jesus said: The water I will give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life.

I can’t help but think how many people suffer from anxiety, depression, etc, and how when we drink of Jesus not only can Christ remove those things but in you will become a life-giving force welling up to eternal life! Come on.

So to conclude children; eat your salad, read your Bible! - Cyle
