Where do we receive our sustenance from? What type of food do we depend on most for our nourishment? As humans we are omnivorous which means we eat a variety of foods. Some of us like salads and vegetables, some like chicken, beef, or grain, and others prefer a mixture, but as we grow more mature in our spiritual selves our diet undergoes a dramatic change. We see this in the preferred diet of Jesus Himself… He longs to dine on God’s will and Word.
In our service to the Lord do we ever find ourselves reaching the physical limit of our strength? Do we find ourselves exhausted and our desire to continue on waning? Well, this is not uncommon because there is a natural limit to what our earthly body, including our minds, can sustain before they must rest. When we approach this limit it is no surprise to God, and although He tells us to eat, drink, and rest, our minds often push us on towards our breaking point. Feeling guilty when we rest, or thinking that we have somehow been given superhuman ability by God, pushes us on and we ignore Him. Listen to the angels He sends, and hear Him in our dreams and visions. You are not unlike Elijah, and need to have your strength replenished… the journey is not over yet.
