The Stomach's Sermon (Thanksgiving Eve)

The stomach's growling is a "sermon" from God, reminding us of four spiritual truths. First, it preaches dependence, showing we are creatures who rely on a dependable God, not a distant deity, for every meal. Second, it reminds us of God's goodness and generosity, proven by the fact He gave us the enjoyment of taste buds, delighting in giving us good things. Third, our hunger points to our responsibility toward others, mirroring God's care by feeding and serving those around us. Finally, the threat of starvation makes us hunger for eternal sustenance, which is found only in Jesus Christ, the Bread of Life (John 6:35).
