Drive Thru Prayers by Nancy Leigh DeMoss 11/9/11

Nancy Leigh DeMoss: For nearly twelve years I traveled full-time, year-round. During that time, I became a fast food junkie.

“Welcome to Starbees. Would you like to try our special today?”

Nancy: But when I turned thirty, my body started to feel the effects of years of junk food. It was begging for a more nutritious, balanced diet. I needed to make some drastic changes.

I’m sad to say there have been times when I’ve fallen into the habit of spiritual fast food. Grabbing a quick verse here, saying a brief prayer there, meeting with God on the run. The problem is, devotions like that always leave us spiritually malnourished.

But Psalm 81:16 tells us what happens when we listen to Him. It says: “You would be fed with the finest of wheat; with honey from the rock I would satisfy you.”

Do you need to slow down and let God satisfy your hungry heart?

With Seeking Him, I’m Nancy Leigh DeMoss.

Verse of the Day

Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself. Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others. — Philippians 2:3-4 (NKJV)
