Our Need for God's Word





Our neighbors found a deer that had been born only a few hours before and had been abandoned by his mother. They adopted him and called him Bullet. At first they had to force feed Bullet, because, although Bullet didn't know it, if he didn't drink milk, he would die.

That image reminded me of the verse in Psalms 42: 1-3 which says, "As the deer pants for the water, so my soul pants after you, O God." Although we don't know it, if we don't continually thirst after God's word, we will spiritually die and forget about God. But thankfully the Holy Spirit shows us that we, like Bullet, need food (God's Word), so that we begin to search after God's Word.
