Food Of The Priests…
You’ve heard the expression, “You are what you eat.” Of course it’s true. Whatever you eat, that’s what you are. That’s true in the physical realm and also in the spiritual.
If you partake of spiritually bad food, if you receive into your heart what is impure, carnal, and ungodly, your life will become the same. But you might say, “I stay far away from those things.” Good.
But it’s not enough. Because the inverse is also true: You are not what you don’t eat. All believers are called to be as Jesus, in every part of their lives. So here’s the question: Are you like Jesus? Are you like Jesus in every part of your life?
If not – then the problem can be solved with a change of diet. You are what you eat – so the more you partake of Jesus, the more you’ll become like Him. It can’t fail – just as you can’t partake of a food without becoming it.
So commit yourself to partaking more of His word, His presence, His love, His beauty, and your life will become more and more Jesus-like… it’s a basic law – you are what you eat.
Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known. But we know that when Christ appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is. 1 John 3:2
What are you partaking of spiritually in your mind and heart that you shouldn’t be? Go on a spiritual diet – and replace it with something spiritually good.
Walk daily with God at your side!
