"I will feed My flock.',

The only real food of the soul must be of God's 
own appointing, preparing, and communicating. 

You can never deceive a hungry child. You may 
give it a plaything to still its cries. It may serve 
for a few minutes; but the pains of hunger are 
not to be removed by a doll. A toy horse will not 
allay the cravings after the mother's breast. 

So with babes in grace. A hungry soul 
cannot feed upon playthings. 

Altars, 
robes, 
ceremonies, 
candlesticks, 
bowing, 
mutterings, 
painted windows, 
intoning priests, and 
singing men and women;
these dolls and wooden horses; these toys 
and playthings of the religious baby-house , 
cannot feed the soul that, like David, cries out 
after the living God. (Psalm 42:23)

Christ, the bread of life, the manna that 
came down from heaven, is the only food 
of the believing soul. (John 6:51)
