Joyful Transformation

Do you ever get hungry and just don’t know what you want to eat? Sometimes you know exactly what you want, but others (and it seems for me the hungrier I am the more I feel this) I don’t know what I want, I just want something good! I have also noticed that if I start eating junk it takes more and more junk to satisfy me. Also when I give in and start eating junk I crave it, whereas if I never start eating it, I have no problem walking away from it. But isn’t it wonderful when you are hungry and you sit down to an absolutely wonderful meal? Wow! My mouth is watering.

My soul is hungry. I don’t know what I want; I don’t know what will fill me up, what will satisfy me. Being busy “doing” things is somewhat like junk food. Don’t misunderstand, I think we must be about service, but sometimes I just crave being busy. I feel like I am satisfying my hunger if I stay busy; and yet, the hunger remains.

Someone (Beaner, I think) asked what we expect from the Zoë Conference. I expect to be filled. I expect that the wonderful feast will come in ways that I can’t even anticipate. I am not going to the conference empty, I have been so blessed and I truly do count those blessings, but I do come hungry. I can’t wait to be filled up!
