(I) talk of Christ . . . and (I) write according to (my understanding), that (my) children (and friends) may know to what source they may look for a remission of their sins. (2 Nephi 25:26)

Sharpening Hunger and Thirst for Righteousness
One way to sharpen hunger and thirst is through deprivation - but another way to do so is to taste something so delicious that the mere memory of that experience makes you hunger and thirst for more.
So now I'm imagining some of my "best" spiritual experiences like they were a fabulous steak dinner with cheesecake for dessert!! And others would be really good pizza with the works. I realize, though, that I'm not going to get a spiritual meal like these every day... most days I'm happy knowing that Heavenly Father is giving me the bread and water that will continue to sustain me.
I currently try to post original thoughts on Fridays, with quotes on Tuesdays. Feel free to comment on new or old posts. Comments on posts over a month old are moderated to avoid spam and will be released whenever I notice them. The comment policy is at the bottom of this page.

Amen, Patty! Thanks for adding that.
