I bought a lunch box the other day for my youngest son and my oldest inquired where is his own. I did not buy for him because he had one identical to the new one.

Hence I thought that was a good reason not to buy for him. 

Below was our conversation.

Son: I want a new lunch box just like my brother

Mum: but you have one already why do you want another one.

Son: mum this lunch box is big and it has an extra little pot that I can pour my syrup or ketchup in anytime I carry pancake or hotdog  to school

Mum: what about the other one?

Son: yes Mummy but this new lunch box is different.

In conclusion mum please buy me a new lunch box. 

I remember  when he was the only one taking lunch to school that lunchbox ticked all the right boxes but now he can do with a little bit more.

The things you prayed for 2 years ago and you thought to yourself if God could just give me this I will not ask for anything else.

One year after, you feel like you could do with more.

Have you ever been there before? What changed?

There is nothing wrong with wanting more, as human beings, we always want more.

 My son justification is the extra little pot inside the lunch box.

Apart from the material things we must also desire a growth on our Christian journey.

When last did God speak to you? Are you still speaking in the same tongues as last year?

How is your prayer life?

Our spiritual life should not be the same as it was last year. The same way you  hunger to upgrade material things You walk with God as well must be on another level.

The Bible says “But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.”

‭‭Matthew‬ ‭6:33‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

What do you hunger for?

My prayer is that the lord almighty will help each and everyone on our Christian journey.

God Bless you
