Still Hungry?

I once read that the parishioners in the German Village of Wittenberg often accused their preacher of preaching the same old message week after week.  Do you know how their preacher responded to their complaints?  He said, "I will stop preaching the Gospel when you no longer have need of hearing it."

    Martin Luther

What about you?  When your preacher asks you to open your Bibles to a familiar passage of Scripture, do you immediately think, "Not again!?"  Do you tune him out, or do you tune him in?

Do you feel 'full' to this Truth, like you can learn nothing new from this verse?

Or are you still hungry?

God's Word is the Living Word of God.  You can read the same verse over and over every single day for the rest of your life, and God will still show you a new truth.

You just have to have an appetite for it!

For me, The Ancient of Days will never grow Old.  I want to always be hungry for God's Word!

    But that's just me!

Say It All Again

by Wayne Watson

If I've heard it once,

Must've heard it a thousand times,

But familiar truths get dusty,

In a cold, sarcastic mind.

From Creation days,

To the tales of Kings,

To the baby born Messiah,

Something deep inside me clings.

And to this very day,

Through the passing years,

Under piles and piles of hidden memory,

What is really true is really very clear,

The spotless Lamb,

and the cruel tree,

And empty grave, the mystery,

And the forgiveness offered to me!

Bridge:

If the fairy tales and legends,

With the generations die,

Still, the hope of all the ages,

Will live on and on,

It will live on!

Chorus:

So, say it all again,

Same old story same old lines,

I have heard it all before,

But say it over one more time,

Would you say it all again,

Same old story, same old lines,

It will warm my frozen heart,

Could you say it over one more time?

Oh say it over one more time.
