I have to say, when considering what I should or should not eat, God is the last thing in my mind. I think about its nutritional value and what it would do to my cholesterol level and how it would show on my scale. I have never thought what the bible has to say about that.
Craving God is a 21 Days-Daily Contemplation that assessed our food craving from biblical point of view. It is not that the Bible listed food that we can or cannot eat, but the book argues that we can resist the temptation to eat that sugar-glazed krispy kreme doughnuts by drawing strength from the scriptures.
I kid you not.
For example, comfort food. Sometimes when we’re having a very bad day, we might just want to go home and finish off a bar of chocolate, or a can of Pringles. This book suggested that instead of relying on food to make us feel better, why not relying on God? Meaning, instead of reaching out for that bag of chips when we felt sad, why not take a moment to pray? It is not that we should never eat Pringles ever again because it is sinful, but we should rely on God to comfort us rather than turning to food.
It is a very interesting read if you’re Christian; you might one to get it while it’s still free on Amazon Kindle.
