God’s word and ed’s opinion

I know I am dependent on you, Lord. I can do nothing of divine, eternal consequence without you. I am poor in spirit and I need you every day, for in you is the kingdom of heaven. I hunger and I thirst for real righteousness, the righteousness that is in you, Lord Jesus, and you satisfy my thirst. For your flesh is true food and your blood is true drink.  Spiritually I feed on your flesh and drink your blood, and I abide in you and you abide in me.

The feeding and drinking is a spiritual matter and not a physical matter. Your word tells me that your words are spirit and life, and that it is the spirit that “gives life and the flesh is no help at all”.  I thirst and I come to you, Lord Jesus, Messiah, and I drink. I believe in you and out of my heart flow rivers of living water, the very Spirit of God!
