WHAT has this fine looking boy got in his hand? It looks like an orange, that he is peeling with his thumb and fingers. His clothes look rather shabby and old, but he has a nice, bright face, and he looks very happy, as he pulls off the skin of the orange. No doubt he is thinking what a feast he is about to have.
And I think all my little renders will know how to enjoy a feast for the body. But there is another kind of feast which is of much greater importance; and because it is so, I would like to say a little word to you about it; I mean a feast for the soul.
The true feast for the soul comes through God's word and God's truth. We may have our souls feasted as we read God's word, or we may have a soulfeast in listening to others who are telling us of the truth. Have you had this soul-feast?
You want to feed your bodies every day, and you enjoy very well, feasting them occasionally. I hope you will feed your souls every day on God's word; and I hope you will very often meditate upon it until it becomes a feast to you.
"Thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of my heart."
