"Hunger and Thirst for HIS WORD!"

Matthew 25:44-45 (Amplified Bible)
 
(Jesus speaking)
Then they also [in their turn] will answer, Lord, when did we see You hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minister to You?
And He will reply to them, Solemnly I declare to you, in so far as you failed to do it for the least [in the estimation of men] of these, you failed to do it for Me.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>|||<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

I have read this scripture many times over the years, and each time I gain something new in my understanding of what Christ was teaching HIS disciples.

My hunger and thirst is minimal in comparison to the desparation and hopelessness of so many that have never received God's Provision of a Savior, HIS Promise of Holy Spirit and HIS Gift of Eternal Life.

If I fail to minister to these, as Jesus tells me, then it would be as if I had failed to do what HE has called and purposed me for.

HE spoke to the Samariatan women at the well, telling her about the Living Water, which could quench her thirst and fill her soul with Peace Everlasting.

HE spoke to the crowd who were hungry, taking 2 fish and 5 loaves of bread, quenching the hunger in their hearts for the Bread of Life that soothes the soul with Joy Everlasting.

There is much more to being a witness for Christ as I continually find each time I read HIS WORDs, that I must strive Diligently and in Obedience to minister to others in their present circumstance, where they will be clothed, be freed and made whole by the Power of HIS Spirit.

These are the 'Food and Drink' of HIS Kingdom WORK, and I must follow HIS example each day, for the resulting Conquest of Souls, bringing Glory to HIS Holy and Righteous Name.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>|||<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Father, YOU lead me to those places of service,
and by YOUR Power YOU give me strength
and wisdom to do YOUR Works of ministry!
Use me to deliver YOUR comfort and hope to many,
that YOU will fill their hearts with Peace and Joy!!
Guide my eyes to see the pain and sorrows of others,
so that through me YOUR Spirit can move mightily, O'Lord!!!

Thank YOU Lord for YOUR Love,
for in YOU I find my strength!
Amen!!!
