Why do we seek the Lord?
Is it for social reasons or to find away to use His words to fulfill our own selfish desires.
As for me I found His words to be the Bread of Life.The book of John 6 shows how the people sought out Jesus, now was it for the fishes and loaves of bread,or for the spiritual food? In verse 26 he tells us the answer! And then goes on to say that we should look for the food that does not perish. He also reaffirms that He is the son,V.29 " This is the work of God, that you believe in him whom he has sent.V.33 goes on to say " For the bread of God is he who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world." unlike the manna from heaven that perished each day. Jesus said " I am the bread of life,whoever comes to me shall not hunger......." V48. " Your fathers ate manna and they died, but if you partake of Jesus you shall have life eternal. Here is where Jesus foretells that His Life (flesh) was given for the world (us,humans). This is the stumbling block for many as they ask how we can eat the flesh, but He is not speaking of flesh and bones but of Spiritual food.
[ABIDE IN ME, JN.15:4, V5 I AM THE VINE and he who is in the vine bears much fruit ( spiritual fruit ) and apart from Him we can do nothing. What I'm saying is, walking in the word of God is not only life in the flesh but we also feed our spirit. To me this is the the the flesh and blood of Jesus the living word. This is just the start of bring forth the fruit for all to partake of, as we continue to study and pursue the WORD, we will find that the fruit we bear will be endless in abundance, to those who seek to be apart of the branches. We become the clay in which He molds us into His use and for His glory. So if this speaks to your heart then open your ears to hear His spirit speaking to you.......

Well it has been awhile since I have blogged, so here goes.
Today I'm walking in the word Prov.1:2-7 and as I start These words must be shared " I am blessed,wise and in good health!
The beginning of knowledge is to know wisdom and instruction, to understand words of insight, to receive in wise dealing, in righteousness,justice,and equity......let the wise hear and increase in learning and the one who understands obtain guidance....
The understanding of the words to fear the Lord are to bring us to the knowledge of His word.By this we begin to realize that our lives are direct reflection of His word in us.We can choose life or death by the words we speak, Prov.18:21,all contained in the power of the tongue.So put the word of God in your mouth which comes through the constant renewing of your mind with the word(read your BIBLE) IT DOES YOU KNOW GOOD SITTING ON A TABLE OR BURIED ON A SHELF. The fool despises wisdom and instruction! So don't allow the devil to keep you from the word,these words are life to those who find them....
In His Love, tom
