Hunger for God compels us to seek the Lord. At times our desire for God overcomes our physical desires, and the ache for God is palpable. Throughout the Scriptures, God is faithful to reward those who search for him. Written during one of King David’s low points, while living on the run in the wilderness, he cries, “Oh God, you are my God, earnestly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you, my body longs for you, in a dry and weary land where there is no water.” Though David hides in the wilderness, he doesn’t stay there physically or spiritually. When we seek God with our whole hearts and souls, he promises to reveal himself to us.” -Hungry for God
