Hunger for righteousness ...

Psalm 37:4 

Then you will take delight in the Lord,
and He will answer your prayers.

 

 Hunger

 

Hunger for righteousness is a gift

that depends totally on God

Spiritual food for spiritual man

is the desire to do His Will

Loosing self for others

obedience to His Name

is the greatest gift of all

as with the Spirit one is filled

 

Remember my dear brothers,

that as you bear the cross

the power of the Spirit fills

the strength of your needs

The flesh rules by its own energy

but the Spirit by God’s Love

there is no way can you loose again

being in God’s true family

 

God’s Spirit being Holy

cannot be contained

He surely needs an outlet

to flow freely to the ocean

Hindrances are many

obstacles along the way,

like sin, pride and coldness

and self and soul reliance
