About “the importance of eating breakfast,” I am reading in one of our local papers today under “Your health”. (Northern News, December 9, 2015)
“Evidence suggests eating a nourishing breakfast is one of the best habits you can adopt to improve your health and wellness.”
But we don’t only have a body, we have a soul as well. Just as important it is to feed our body in the morning, so it is important to feed our soul in the morning.
That’s why it is important to read the BIBLE before we leave our home in the morning and start praying and continue to pray all day long, whenever we feel the need to do so.
I did not only read the Bible this morning, but I read also the page for yesterday instead of today – my mistake – in a Devotional Treasury.
In the Bible I read this morning chapter 4 and chapter 5 of First Samuel in the Old Testament. In those chapters the Philistines capture the ark, Eli dies, and we are told about the ark in Ashdod and Ekron.
The Devotional Treasury I am reading is called MORNING AND EVENING by C. H. Spurgeon.
From Bible school I remember once a guest speaker saying to us students that a hunter picks up his rifle before he goes hunting and not when he comes back.
