Our Soul Was Hand-Designed....

Come, sit, and enjoy a cup of tea or coffee in the comfort of the Lord:  "Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice."  Ephesians  4:31

Our soul was hand-designed to be richly satisfied by the Word of God.

When we go without the nourishment of truth, we often try to fill our spiritual hunger with temporary physical pleasures, thinking they will somehow treat the loneliness inside. These things can’t fill us. They can only numb us.

And numb souls are never growing souls. They wake up one day feeling so very distant from God and wondering how in the world they got there.

Since Satan’s goal is to separate us from the Lord, this is where he wants us to stay. But the minute we turn to God’s Word is the minute the gap between us and God is closed. He is always near. And His Word is fully able to reach those deep places inside us desperate for truth.
