Soul Food

Daily scriptures to nourish your soul and encourage your heart.

"Your words were found, and I ate them, And your word was to me the joy and rejoicing of my heart; For I am called by Your name, O LORD God of Hosts."--Jeremiah 15:16 (NKJV)

The Bible likens the Word of God to food. Food that is ingested and processed through the "belly" or soul. As we are nourished with the wholesome goodness of the nutrient enriched Word; the soul is satiated.
