You really are what you eat Life in this world is but a vapor in the context of eternity (James 4:14). Yet this is what the unsaved live for: to consume only what they can see in this world (Matthew 6:31-32). Those who know Jesus Christ as their Savior and Lord have internalized Him as the spiritual bread who sustains eternal life (John 6:35). As we grow in our relationship with the Lord, we experience abundant life (John 10:10) which has wonderful benefits even in this world: "the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control which surpasses all understanding" (Galatians 5:22-23 and Philippians 4:7). If you hunger for this spiritual food which is necessary for abundant life, ask Jesus to come into your life right now where ever you are at knowing "that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved" (Romans 10:9).
