All too often, we overindulge at Christmas, eating and drinking more than is good for us.
Try less eating, more hunger:
Matthew 5:6 (NIV)
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst
for righteousness, for they will be filled.

I remember good old days,
and wish they would repeat,
but they are truly gone away,
and it’s so hard to eat.
There are tumours in my throat
that make swallowing a chore,
and the only thought I can float,
is, “What a bloody bore!”
My wife still gamely tries to tempt
with meals cooked in love and care,
but they’re something I cannot attempt
without puking on my sick-bed chair.
I’m at the mercy of the beast,
but recall with gladness Christmas feast.
I pray, Andrew, that you will eat heartily at God’s full table of wisdom. And continue passing that wisdom on to the rest of us.
Your words mean more than you may know. Thank you for this.
