What do you hunger for?


2 Peter 3: 18
But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever! Amen.

If only our hearts in Christ, would grow as steadily as most people’s waistlines.
Of course, that’s not what Peter had in mind, when he penned these departing words.

Did you know that the more a believer grows in grace and knowledge, the greater desire to grow even more?
How does that happen for you and me?
We simply ask the Holy Spirit to make us more grace filled.
We also must develop a greater hunger for God’s Word.

I wish I could say I see that happening in all the people I know.
Honestly, if that were happening in the church, more people would participate in bible studies, and God’s great power would be manifested beyond measure.
Hosea 4: 4 says, that we are destroyed for lack of knowledge. I wonder if we're destroyed for lack of grace?

God wants to hear that in our prayer life. He wants to hear us asking for more.
James 1: 5 says, that God gives generously to all who ask.
What will you ask Him for today?
