Chew, Chew, Chew

by PamFord Davis  
4/16/2024 / Devotionals

Born and raised in rural Central New York State; I was well accustomed to the sight of Holstein cows grazing. They ate grass slowly and chewed their cud. It wasn’t a fast food routine. Cows chew, chew and chew some more.

Chewing might bring back memories of family meal times as a child…

Mothers often chide their youngsters for eating too fast.

'Slow down; chew your food!'

I’m thinking adults might need that same advice. I frequently tell my husband that he eats too fast.

Speaking of slow vs. fast… Should Bible reading be a speed reading event?

Meditation is like chewing a passage over and over. It’s a vital part of the spiritual digestion process. I’m not a big meat eater but do enjoy a good steak occasionally. Chewing well might take me longer. Yet, the distinct flavor on my taste buds makes that time worthwhile. 

God instructed Joshua following the death of Moses. Joshua had been mentored by Moses and was stepping in as Israel’s new spiritual leader.

“This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest (Joshua 1:8-9 NASB).”

I want the full benefits of each message morsel; don't you?
