These fruits are full of Life, full of life-giving nutrients. They are good. God has called them good. Compare them to the following. But don't we just crave the junk? Haven't we lost our appetite for the good stuff? I was thinking about this because today in my Oswald Chambers reading he said, "It is only when we get hungry spiritually that we receive the Holy Spirit." Someone once said that when you are truly hungry, you don't want to do anything but eat. That is all you think about. You don't want to sleep, you don't want to be entertained, you don't want to laugh or talk or hug... you want to EAT. So can we very often say we are truly hungry for more of the Holy Spirit, so much so that we will trade sleep and food and entertainment to get more of Him?
