2/2/12 He hadn't eaten for two days, Lord. So, on the third day, we gave him a snack bag. He couldn't open the can of beanie weenies and crackers fast enough to get them into his mouth. He was hungry. Very hungry. Andrew, living the streets, drinking to staying warm knowing it only makes you colder. It's just a false feeling, sort of like the deception that life without God is better. It's not. Andrew said that today. He had a different hunger today. Andrew got more than beans and crackers to fill himself today. On the third day of his hunger, Andrew was filled. Filled with You, Lord, filled with Your blessed Holy Spirit. He's got a new start, an appointment to get into rehab this afternoon, and a new view of his life. His life is Yours now. Andrew gave it to You, to do as You will Lord. On the third day. The day of Jesus' resurrection. The day of Andrew's resurrection. New birth. New man. Full, and so full of You, Lord, that Andrew, though tired, battered, hungry, dirty, broke into a big smile in praise to You. On the third day. Wow. Filled to brim. With You. For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins ...that he was buried ... that he was raised on the third day ... 1Corinthians 15:1-11, NIV |
