The Book

"...I went to the angel and said to him, 'Give me the little book.' And he said to me, 'Take and eat it, and it will make your stomach bitter, but it will be sweet as honey in your mouth.'" -Revelation 10:9

Just so, we too, are to consume the Book - a practice that has fallen out of fashion in many christian circles. How else do we receive spiritual sustenance? We must take God's word in our hands and eat it up! In it we find the sweetness of peace and joy and everlasting life. By it we are challenged in our innermost being. Our gut is put to the test. Can we stomach God's words?
