At certain times in our lives it can appear that we merely go through our lives "doing all the stuff",while still consuming the word of God we some how still manage to find ourselves hungry on on the inside. - It's at time like these that we need the washing of the word over our lives, Matt 6:11 explains this perfectly, "Give us - this day - our daily bread". You see God speaks to us everyday, in everyday ways. If we can listen quietly, we can hear God speaking to us naturally all the time.
