“When Jesus heard this, he told them, “Healthy people don’t need a doctor, sick people do. I have come to call not those who think they are righteous, but those who know they are sinners.” Mark 2:17 (NLT)
Growing up on an Indian reservation, Renee was taught that her identity rested in the Zuni religion.
So she regularly participated in the ceremonies and rituals.
But even at a young age Renee had questions.
She attended a Christian high school, yet that increased her confusion.
Could she follow Jesus and keep her Native American identity?
Her high school counselor reminded Renee that God wanted a personal relationship with her.
Eventually Renee prayed to invite Jesus into her heart.
She finally understood that Jesus is the Creator she sought!
Renee said, “God desires for all tribes, tongues and nations to know Him and to glorify Him. To worship the Creator instead of the created. To come to Him with their hearts.”
Renee is right! Friend, seek Jesus. He is the answer for all nations!
“Like newborn babies, crave pure spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow up in your salvation, now that you have tasted that the Lord is good.” 1 Peter 2: 2 & 3
It was a hectic time. Too often we found ourselves getting “take out”. Then we walked into a friend’s home and the roast beef smelled wonderful. The fast food had filled the need of the moment but the roast beef meal was so much more satisfying.
We all know the sluggish slide our bodies take when we “fast food” it too often.
We often try to “fast food” it as Christians too. Oh we get some nutrition from our quick reading and our prayer on the way out the door. But our hearts hunger for the “roast beef” and we don’t even recognize it.
Sluggishness sets into the soul when we neglect good spiritual nutrition too long. Are you finding unrest in your soul or perhaps some anger or irritation? Is lack of peace and impatience beginning a slow slide into your spirit?

Spiritual fast food is great for those crazy days now and then, but if it is your steady diet your soul will be malnourished.
God longs to feed your soul. He provides a meal you don’t want to miss.
Father God, Today I ask that You will rekindle my hunger for You. I pray that You will lead me in new ways of knowing You. Help me take the time to grow up in my spiritual tastes. Thank you for the nutrition You have provided in spiritual fast food, but help me to desire more. I know you have a feast for those who take the time to come. May I be one of them. ?In Jesus name I pray, Amen.
Take responsibility for your spiritual condition.
• Put some Christian music on.
• Read your Bible and ask God to speak to you.
• Take time to pray alone and listen.
• Find a Christian friend to talk with.
Real satisfaction awaits you as you crave pure spiritual food. Ask God to help you hunger for Him in new ways. He has a feast for those who linger with Him.
