Eating Habits

It is kind of encouraging to see people post here...haha I hope it's not just a burst of interest. Anyways, I want to share something about eating habits. We all know that we're suppose to chew our food thoroughly and swallow them slowly. well...at least the Chinese culture teach that. It promotes digestion in our mouth and discourage choking, which in turn improves our health status. but I noticed that we should eat the spirit food the same way we eat our regular food. today at the small group leaders' meeting, Don was reading a verse for us. and he read it soooo slowly....word by word. at first i thought "what the heck.... so slow dude..." but then i realized how inadequate and hasty my bible reading is. i try to go through it fast thinking that i'll retain the info, but i probably forget about it after i've pronounced it out of my mouth. Don's reading really reminded me that i should chew God's words slowly and really absorb the nutrients that are in it. and think of God's word as i crave for Taiwan foods. it's a mentality change for me today!
