Let's Thrive - Day 25 - "Feasting"

    While preparing for Easter and for LDS General Conference, I thought about "feasting".  In between sessions I hurriedly ran to the store to pick up the items I will need to contribute to our Easter dinner tomorrow with family.  My assignment was to bring desserts and breads to eat with cheeses.  As I pushed my cart around the bakery section, so many delicious items called to me and tantalized me to purchase them.  Knowing that feasting too much on these sugary foods would not be good for our bodies, I carefully chose what we would have tomorrow and tried to limit myself in quantity.
    However, while listening to conference for four to six hours today and four more tomorrow, I realized that one cannot feast too much on the word of God.  While feasting too much on sugary desserts can cause physical damage, partaking of spiritual food is never harmful.  To me is seems we cannot be too gluttonous in our desire for the words of the soul.  We cannot get too "spiritually obese" nor have a "scripture" over-dose.  I don't get a tummy ache from scriptures that are too rich, nor do I feel sluggish after partaking of a large feast of the word of God.  What a wonderful opportunity we have to "pig out" during Conference.  More importantly, we have been served a fresh array of spiritual dishes and entrees to reheat and and rewarm during the coming six months so we can be nourished daily by the good word of God.  The recipes and instructions shared during these last two weeks provide important keys to our vitality and ability to thrive.  With one more day to feast, I think I'll delightfully declare, Bon Appetit!
