Mid-Week Encouragement 10.28.2026

Matthew 5:6 – “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, For they shall be filled.”

1 John 2:15 – “Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.”

Jesus calls us to have a continual hunger and thirst for righteousness, a desire for His Word, His presence, and the things that matter to Him.  But just as busyness can cause us to forget to nourish our bodies, the distractions and desires of this world can diminish our spiritual appetite.  When we fill ourselves with worldly things, we often leave little room for the things of God.  Take a moment today to examine what you're feeding your heart and mind.  Are there things in your life that are quenching your hunger for the Lord?  Ask Him to renew your appetite for His Word, deepen your desire for righteousness, and help you grow more like Christ.  He promises that those who hunger and thirst for righteousness will be filled!
