Feasting or Starving?

For whatever was written in former days was written for our instruction, that through endurance and through the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope. - Romans 15:4

I need endurance, encouragement, and hope. I need God's Word. Do I starve myself, living on granola bar-like doses of God's Word each day? I need to feast on the Scriptures daily.

Your words were found, and I ate them, and your words became to me a joy and the delight of my heart, for I am called by your name, O LORD, God of hosts. - Jeremiah 15:16

As a deer pants for flowing streams, so pants my soul for you, O God. My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. - Psalm 42:1-2
