Is your feeder full?

Are your feeders full?

Crazy question but I’m  trying to get my time with God back on track. I say I love Him.  I neglect Him.  Sitting in the gorgeous day reflecting I saw a  beautiful bird stop by the (empty) feeder. He had been there before and been fed. Today there was nothing for him so he flew off empty. I didn't keep the feeder full.

 I mean well, and after all, the cold is over. Why would he stop by now? Fact of the matter was, he came to fill himself and went away empty. I likened it to my spiritual feeder. Mine is in all honesty empty right now. When was the last time I took the effort to restock it? Oh, one or two verses here and there, and Sunday sermons pump me up right? But that’s  not REAL focused time with God to gain back that closeness He wants and I desire so badly. I don't cease to need the fuel of God's word because the seasonal storms have stopped or the sun is shining in my life, in fact, I may need it even more because it is in the good times that Satan sneaks quietly in and sometimes even if I do have my feeder full--He dumps it! (dressed as a squirel haha) I could elaborate even more, but maybe you get my point today. I admire all the folks that blog and are growing deeper in their relationships every minute of the day. I desire that and will begin again like so many times before...to fill my spiritual feeder for myself, but also for those who may stop by and need fed as well. I can't help feed their hungry souls if mine is running on empty. Hold me accountable guys!
