EAT YOUR VEGETABLES

EXPERIENCE: The Lord has been talking to me lately about eating more vegetables and less starch. He really wants me to change my eating habits and recover a healthy body. Then today at the new dentist office I was amazed at the huge fish tank in their office. I asked the secretary about the foot long fish on the bottom of the tank. She said that he went along the glass and ate algae.

Then I heard the Lord say, "Vegetable eater." As soon as I heard Him say that, she added, "We cut up pieces of zucchini and hang it from a string and he loves it." I said, "That is probably why he is so big, because you feed it with tender loving care." She said it was the largest that any one had ever seen of its kind.

As I was trying to apply the Lord’s quick interjection into my conversation with the lady, I realized He was saying that He had fed me with TLC and I was growing bigger in Him. I also thought He had a wonderful sense of humor to find such an interesting confirmation for getting me to change my eating habits. I am doing much better now and having vegies every day.

HILARIOUS CONFIRMATION: As I went into the dentist and sat in the chair, I was still thinking about eating vegies. Hanging on the wall I read:

QUICKENED SIGN: "Open thy mouth and I will fill it."

OK Lord, I got the point! More vegetables.

WORD TO PONDER: LISTEN AND APPLY

I want to talk to you through everything in life, if you would only listen. My Words to you are like shining symbols hanging on the wall, once your heart is opened to hear Me in new parabolic ways.

Do you want to grow up in Me? Then eat a more balanced diet. I know all you want is visions and hearing My still small voice, but I want to send you a good variety of tasty Words. You may not like the unusual ways I speak, but I promise you that once you taste My voice in all of life, it is like a carrot dangling on a string. I place My morsels in front of you, and bounce them around just enough to get your attention, and wait for you to take a bite. Now that wasn’t so bad, was it? Try another, and another and another. Soon you will delight in eating your spiritual vegetables and will grow healthy, lean and strong. Listen and apply your life around you as My Word. Hear the spiritual parables behind your circumstances. They are everywhere, all around you, every day.

"And with many such parables He spoke the word to them as they were able to hear it. But without a parable He did not speak to them. And when they were alone, He explained all things to His disciples." (Mark 4:33-34 NKJV)
