Come to Me, all of you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Matthew 11:28
Our souls can manifest physical symptoms of need. I like to think of it this way: Just like my stomach growls when I'm hungry for physical food, my spirit tends to growl when I'm in need of spiritual food. So when a checker at the grocery store seems overtly irritable or grouchy, I sometimes grin and think to myself, “I bet her kids woke up before she had a chance to have her quiet time!” I can assure you that my personality is distinctively different when I haven't had the time I need with the Lord. My soul can do some pretty fierce growling! How about yours?
