“YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT.”

“YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT,” it says in a recent column in our local newspaper written by a GP. (General Practitioner)

We don’t need to be reminded to feed our bodies, but we need to be reminded to feed our souls. What does the Lord Jesus Christ say in Matthew 4:4, when he was tempted by the devil? He said, “Man does not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.”

There is Physical food and there is Spiritual food.

Once more, we hear a lot about physical food, but not enough about spiritual food.

The Lord Jesus Christ died on the cross to redeem the soul of man. And in Matthew 10:28 it says, “Do not be afraid of those who kill the body, but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell.”

Can I encourage you to be more interested in spiritual food, than in food for the body?

SPIRITUAL FOOD

In abundance it is prepared for the believer. Please read Matthew 22:4.

The Lord Jesus Christ is the bread of Life. Please read John 6:35

When we are saying that we are what we eat, we are not only thinking about the food for our bodies, but also about the food for our souls.
