I'm a girl who likes to listen to music and lately I've been listening to a lot of worship and Christian music, but I've found myself disappointed and feeling a little flat that, while I've enjoyed the music, I've failed to have any overwhelming encounter with God as a result of it. I mean, it always encourages me and often confirms my views and beliefs about God's character. But, try as I might, lately, I just can't seem to get the spiritual insight and nourishment I'm longing for.
I was thinking about it the other day and realized just how long it had been since I tuned in to a sermon or some good teaching on the radio, rather than the music stations I'd been listening to of late. And then I realized my problem. Not enough meat. I've been drinking a whole bunch of spiritual milk. It has some nutritional value, but not all that I need. I'm lacking protein. I need some meat from the Word. I've neglected my diet and I think it's time that I made some changes.
As I consider my diet and eating habits, I can't help but think I better have more steak and waffles.
