subject: Searching For The Meaning Of Life [print this page] In the ancient days, bread was thereIn the ancient days, bread was there. Just like in todays culture, if we sit down to a meal and we are offered bread, we have an option to receive the bread, to eat the bread, or not.
Jesus says, if you feed on my bread, if you feed on me, the text goes on to say, you will never, ever go hungry. I am the bread of life. He who comes to me will never go hungry.
Our hunger will always be satisfied. That is why so many people are searching for the meaning of life. They are searching, they are trying this, they are sampling that, and they are saying, Something doesnt work, because I am still hungry.
You can be satisfied, if you eat the bread of life, this cosmic carbohydrate. The Bible is our meal plan. It shows us how to eat, when to eat. We should eat carbs, but it doesnt leave us hanging just with the carbs. It also talks about some powerful protein. Because you have got to combine the protein with the carbs.
Ed Young tell us what Hebrews 5:14 says, Solid food, (in other words, meat) is for the mature, who by constant use have trained themselves to distinguish good from evil.
Lisa and I have been eating properly for about twenty years. We eat healthy most of the time. We have about one day a week when we cheat on our diets. That occurred for me this Friday night. Our Home Team, our small group, had a party and there on the table was this giant colossal bowl of caramel corn with all the peanuts and stuff.
This caramel corn was saying, Ed, eat me. Eat me, Ed. Youll love it, Ed.
So I saw it, circled it like a shark in a feeding frenzy, grabbed a handful, and put it in my mouth. Popcorn was kind of growing out of the sides of my mouth. My eyes rolled back in my head and it was incredible.
After my tenth handful, I could feel my system saying to me, my stomach saying, Ed what are you doing, man? This aint right.
