verse of the day

Are you starving your soul?

As I opened one of my daily readings ,I read these words,'The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid'  (Psalm 27v1)I am not particularly afraid  of anything at the moment,but have a concern as to people who are trying to lure me into given them opportunity of robbing me I speak of scammers.Coming back to that verse,plus others, they were like medicine to my soul.That started me of on a train of  thought as regards the Word of God, that word that brings peace into our souls,light into our darkness,comfort in our sorrows,encouragement in our struggles,and so we could go on.The scriptures are not just words they are God's words.When we read the Word of God ,He is speaking to us.When we neglect the Word of God we are neglecting  our souls well being,in a sense we are starving our souls,In  that wonderful hymn ,'Guide me ,O Thou great Jehovah',we have two lines that read,'Bread of heaven,feed me now and evermore'.Let us remember what our dear Saviour said,'Man shall not live on bread alone,but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.'  ( Matthew 4 v 4)
