Sitting in a kitchen, watching and waiting for someone prepare a meal for you will make you drool. Consider the work that goes into this meal-the measuring, the chopping, the stirring, the baking.
...the smells ...the warmth.
Anticipate the tastes, the satisfaction that you will soon enjoy!

Are you hungry? Will you be able to wait? Are you tempted to sneak a taste before it's ready?

Now, in your spiritual life, are you hungry? Do you desire more God. If you hunger, does it seem that satisfaction is a long time coming? If you're not hungry for God, what have you been feeding on? Have you filled yourself up with busyness or earthly cares? Have you spent so much time on other things that you have forgotten what it's like to hunger for God?

Talk to God about it. Ask Him to help you wait & hunger for Him. Hold on to His promise and ask Him to satify your hunger.

Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. -Matthew 5:6
