Hunger for God

Now there were four leprous men at the entrance of the gate; and they said to one another, “Why are we sitting here until we die? If we say, ‘We will enter the city,’ then the famine is in the city and we will die there; but if we sit here, we will also die. Now then come, and let’s go over to the camp of the Arameans. If they spare us, we will live; and if they kill us, then we will die.” – 2Ki 7:3-4

Jesus speaking “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be satisfied” – Matt 5:6
