Bill, that was a nice take on something I wrote. Thanks. I'd like to expand on it a little bit more.
One of the remarkable things about the human body is that when it needs a certain nutrient, it will start craving foods that contain that nutrient. Sometimes I get an irresistable craving for carrots. I'm not crazy about carrots, but I will eat them anyway when that craving comes over me, because I probably need the vitamin A. I've done the same with orange juice from time to time. Don't really like the stuff, but sometimes I've just got to have it. Perhaps the reason I like liver and onions is because my body needs the iron.
In the same way, I believe our spiritual selves have cravings. Some people can't quite identify what it is their spiritual selves need, so they turn to crystals or tarot cards, or other such silly things. Sometimes they turn to science or philosophy. Some turn to their inner selves, trying to become stronger so they can somehow fill this need.
For me, the message of the craving was loud and clear. I craved GOD in my life. And because I recognized that need and let God in, my spiritual self has grown more healthy with every day. Now, the only spiritual hunger I have is to grow an even closer relationship with Him. I found "the good stuff my soul needs", and that has allowed me to grow.
