I had the pleasure of having the guys from my small group over to my Man Cave this week.
So I whipped up one of my favorite recipes, Shrimp Creole. I add turkey bacon to the recipe but otherwise this recipe is basically the same as the version that I’ve been making for a decade. A little on the spicy side.
I’m thinkin’ that the guys either really like it or were really hungry. Or maybe both. They chowed down!
Since then I heard We Are Hungry while jamming to Steve Fee on Pandora… and it made me think of the brothers and sisters from Church. We do life together and that’s a very special feeling for me. And we’re very passionate about our relationship with Jesus. Serving Him. Worshiping Him. Growing in our relationship with Him. And that’s the way I believe it should be.
Hmmm, so now I’m thinkin’ I’m really hungry too… Hungry for More of You! I simply can’t get enough…
“Lord I want more of You
Living water rain down on me
Lord I need more of You
Living breath of life come fill me up
We are hungry
We are hungry
We are hungry for the more of You
We are thirsty, oh Jesus
We are thirsty for the more of Youâ€
What does being Hungry bring to mind to you?
Are you Hungry?
Are you Hungry for more of Him?
Great post Chris! Isn’t it easy to take our eyes off of Jesus and get so swallowed up in the things of this world? I know it is for me; it seems that I’m constantly bombarded with just trying to make it through every day. There are so many times that I think this same thing – I need to set my focus on Jesus and keep it there! This world is a cruel place, but God’s love is ever constant.
My turn to share a song with you; I’m a huge Rich Mullins fan and this is one of my favorites.
There’s a wideness in God’s mercy
I cannot find in my own
And He keeps His fire burning
To melt this heart of stone
Keeps me aching with a yearning
Keeps me glad to have been caught
In the reckless raging fury
That they call the love of God
Now I’ve seen no band of angels
But I’ve heard the soldiers’ songs
Love hangs over them like a banner
Love within them leads them on
To the battle on the journey
And it’s never gonna stop
Ever widening their mercies
And the fury of His love
Oh the love of God
And oh, the love of God
The love of God
Joy and sorrow are this ocean
And in their every ebb and flow
Now the Lord a door has opened
That all Hell could never close
Here I’m tested and made worthy
Tossed about but lifted up
In the reckless raging fury
That they call the love of God
Denise, you are so much on the mark, and i really appreciate that, God Bless you!!!
