| Dear Young Christian: |
| In a book of short sayings, I came across this saying I thought would be good to pass along this week: |
| “Feed on the Word, |
| not the World.” |
| It is just one letter difference. The letter “l”. But what a difference it can make in our spiritual diet and spiritual growth! Ask yourself, “What did I feed on this past weekend, and what will I feed on this week?” |
| Centuries ago Job wrote, “I have esteemed the words of His mouth more than my necessary food” (Job 23:12). Jeremiah said, “Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and Thy Word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart” (Jeremiah 15:16). The Lord Himself said, “He that eateth Me, even he shall live by Me” (John 6:57). |
| So, it is necessary that we feed on Christ by reading the Word, and through meditation, digesting it for the good and vitality of our souls. |
| Your Christian Friend, |
| Jim Hyland |
