God's goal is to make you CHRIST-LIKE. Not to make you Happy. What you eat SPOILS your appetite for HIM because what we don't see is how our food can sometimes REPLACE him, our need for him and even our ability TO HEAR HIM! I NEVER KNEW ANYT OF THIS.
When I ate what I wanted, when I wanted, it spoiled my everything. cookies spoil Landon's dinner and teach him to feed his flesh. Eating and cheating teach me how to be mastered by my flesh, and to drown out what I hear and how I respond to the spirit.
I hope today's episode makes sense to you.
