Food for thought on Frankenfoods

I haven't had the time to sit and think this one out as much as I'd like to, and even less time to type it out. But I wanted to give you all some more "food for thought" on this Frankenfood idea...

We put a lot of time and energy into learning about our foods and their sources. And we should! We should be questioning what we're eating and find what is truly healthy for our bodies. After all, if our body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, it makes sense that we'd want to be good stewards of that body, yes?

How about spiritually? Are we eating man made 'spiritual' foods? Modified to taste better... Packed with sugars to make us happy and feel good... Addicted to the emotions, where we keep coming back for more...

Why are we addicted to the spiritual food that the world offers when we have REAL food in God's Word? And why do we not take and eat that every day? It is necessary and yet it so often gets neglected for the philosophies of the world. The Oprahs and Osteens. (Did I open a can of worms??) We have a very real God who wants to communicate with us through His Word. He has food that sustains and it is at our fingertips.

Are you settling for spiritual frankenfoods? Or the real banquet table of wholesome, healthy, life giving foods found in His Word?
