Are you eating THAT?

    Before the weekend would even start, my daughters were asking who could sleep over.  Girls love to stay up late, eat, tell their deepest secrets, eat, talk, eat, watch movies and EAT.  It was an unending feast of junk food. They would eat and talk until they surrendered to a comatose-like sleep.  In the morning, or early afternoon, they would arise for more eating and talking.  Eventually parents would arrive to take home those who could not yet drive.
    It is amazing to me how much a teenager can eat!  Even more amazing is what they will eat.  Usually anything within reach will do.  Sadly, most people have the same habits concerning all of the media that is always “within reach”. T.V., radio, phones, internet, magazines and books provide constant spiritual junk food.  It is consumed without much or any thought.  As junk food can not provide a healthy balanced diet, neither can a diet of spiritual junk food.  Jesus said in Matthew 4:4 "It is written: 'Man does not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.'"
