Hungry?


For several days, I have felt restless. I feel hungry, but not in a physical sense; I walk around looking for something to satisfy my hunger, but nothing does.

Anybody else ever feel that way?


Blessings,
Merry

Yeah...and I suggest asking God what will do it for you...otherwise you might hear from the wrong voice that suggests the wrong thing to satisfy that hunger...shoot, dive into the Word, that might help...you can never go wrong with God's Word

Blessings in His awesome & precious name! - Sabrina

Yea right before the Father clipped my wings...LOL.......

Since he is revealing the plans he has for me to work on... i have become far more patient and realize if he wants me to do something, big or small.....I will have to accept HIS timing is perfect..

God Bless Merry.....

He uses your love to bring smiles to us here.... maybe he has a bigger work planned

You are picking up on a restlessness of the spirit worldwide,end times and all,time is drawing near,hunger for truth and more of God, nothing wrong with you, Merry

You may be right about that Leanne. Ed and Rhonda have been posting some things like that, and those thoughts have been running through my head. It is true that nothing "worldly" will satisfy a spiritual hunger.

Ask God what He is inviting you into. Perhaps He is calling you.

A close friend of mine had that restless feeling right before his heart attack. It could be a physical need.

Ok, I don't mind hearing God calling me, but I'm not sure a heart attack is what I have in mind! But yes, there could be a physical need.

Okay, i'm just gonna say it!, maybe a man in your life is what you need to satisfy that hunger!, there, i said it.

Life is an adventure.


merry12 replies on 4/25/2007 6:57 pm:
could be--hmmm, maybe that's why I'm here! But only for what God brings me--I'm sure not going to pick one out for myself; I did that once and it was a disaster!

Your spirit is looking for more of God, that is what the hunger is all about. I have had that. Go to your prayer closet and dive into Him, cry out for more of Him, seek Him out, by prayer mostly but also in His word. He is getting ready to bring something forth in you. Question is, how bad do you want it? It's a good question for all of us, I think.


merry12 replies on 4/25/2007 6:58 pm:
That is what I am feeling too Robyn. Keep me in your prayers, because I believe it is a spiritual hunger.

That's where my thoughts went also. So, you either thirst for God or hunger for a man. LOL Or, maybe both.

Well, maybe! guess we'll see where this leads, huh?

I offer you a frappe (virtual with no calories), a prayer (one from my heart here at my own prayer closet) and a couple of verses:

Jer 29 : 11 - 13 For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.

God bless you!

YES!!!! Unfortunately, I quell that hunger with Blue Bell ice cream--homemade vanilla. It's so good it almost works.
