Hungry for spiritual food. A weekly sermon not enough. Easy to forget what the preacher said. Still hungry. Reading Christian book after Christian book. All day with Bible open again. Years ago looking up every single chain reference manually. So glad to get computers doing it now. Feeding on the Word of God. Good Shepherd leading His sheep to green pastures. They lie down and ruminate after grazing. Still waters easy to drink from. 

Why are some sheep malnourished? Maybe they have an eating disorder. Why are some sheep not healthy? Maybe they feed on the wrong food. Maybe they have no stomach for the Word Of God and can't digest strong meat. Some sheep are too busy to feed on the words of life, no, not now they say, and some have become fed up because they don't like the menu, and because bad shepherds have trampled down the pasture where they habitually gather.

Happy sheep are happily feeding on God's Word and helping each other to stay healthy. Go where the good food is they keep saying. Are you feeding well they keep asking. Unhappy sheep are standing around in confusion. We don't know how to feed on the Word of God they lamb-ment. Some of them have been put off feeding on God's Word at a young age. What boring food they say. It doesn't taste at all pleasant they say.

But once those hunger pains start to bite the Word of God doesn't seem so bad and the unhappy sheep are not so unhappy and the Shepherd keeps leading them to pastures that are sweeter and sweeter by the day. We can feed forever on good food now these happy sheep are saying. The Shepherd is glad when His flock are happily feeding on the food He provides. In a sense... He is the food!
