Yesterday Afternoon's Bible Study |
"Various forms of junk food are a staple in most households. There are plenty of options for those who have a sweet tooth or crave something salty. Although these high-carb and fat-filled foods tend to be unhealthy, we still can't wait to consume them -- but a steady diet of junk food will cause our bodies to suffer the consequences.
In our walk with Christ, if we aren't careful, "spiritual junk food" can find its way into our lives. This comes in the form of feeding our souls with things that aren't godly or trying to fill the places where God should be with something else. When we spend too much time on our smartphones or watching television, for instance, we will find less and less time to spend time with the Lord.

It isn't that TV watching or using smartphones are bad; we just shouldn't allow them to crowd out time for God. It's important that we trade spiritual junk food for a desire to study God's Word. The things of God can fill all of the empty spaces in our hearts, minds, and souls like nothing else on Earth.
When we seek God, we will always find Him. He can give us contentment like no other and fill all of the empty places in our lives.
