Is it bread or the Word?

"Man does not live by bread alone but by the word of God."

It has been some time since i have read the word of God regularly. Maybe i felt that it was not necessary for me to read everyday or that i have misplaced my priority in this area. But i am glad that God showed me once again from His word how it changes and renews my mind as i read. Praise Him for his wonderful works!

I pray that as i read each time, God will sanctify my mind and by the renewing of my mind, i will be transformed into the image of my Lord Jesus Christ who is full of love and grace and yet disciplines and teaches.

Indeed the bread that nourishes or fills the stomach cannot be compared to the Word that grows and builds up the spiritual life in a person. I believe with all my heart that as i look to Him and continue to trust in His work that has started in me and bringing it to completion till the day I meet with Christ, He will fulfill His will for my life.

Holy Spirit, help me to stay close and draw from you. In spite of difficult circumstances, i will not fall or look at it with hopelessness, but place my hope in you.

Love you Lord.
