My prayers are with you today, sister. May the good Lord fill you up with His word and will, and may you feast upon Him.
For me, those urgings to eat are SO hard sometimes. I've found that by memorizing and reading Scriptures specifically dealing with how God's Word feeds and nourishes us, I can focus on God's meat and not on the ice cream in the freezer (or for me, the brie in the fridge, which is more tempting than sweets).
Isaiah 55
1 "Come, all you who are thirsty,
come to the waters;
and you who have no money,
come, buy and eat!
Come, buy wine and milk
without money and without cost.
Isaiah 55:2
2 Why spend money on what is not bread,
and your labor on what does not satisfy?
Listen, listen to me, and eat what is good,
and your soul will delight in the richest of fare.
Amos 8:11-13
11 "The days are coming," declares the Sovereign LORD,
"when I will send a famine through the land—
not a famine of food or a thirst for water,
but a famine of hearing the words of the LORD.
12 Men will stagger from sea to sea
and wander from north to east,
searching for the word of the LORD,
but they will not find it.
13 "In that day
"the lovely young women and strong young men
will faint because of thirst.
Matthew 5:6
6Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
for they will be filled.
Luke 6:21
21Blessed are you who hunger now,
for you will be satisfied.
Blessed are you who weep now,
for you will laugh.
Psalm 34:8
8 Taste and see that the LORD is good;
blessed is the man who takes refuge in him.
