Hungry

Another gain that has held on overall since our winter weeks in Florida is an increased appetite. It can be hard to find enough leftovers to fill me up, and we have to cook very large recipes to leave enough to freeze for future meals around here.

Some breakfasts require double or triple what they used.

This brings to mind the wonderful promise in Christ's Sermon on the Mount: 

Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
for they shall be satisfied.

Matthew 5:6 (ESV)

"The Lord Jesus calls those blessed, who hunger and thirst after righteousness. He means those who desire above all things to be entirely conformed to the will of God. They long not so much to be rich, or wealthy, or learned, as to be holy. Blessed are all such! They shall have enough one day. They shall 'awake up after God's likeness and be satisfied' (Ps. 17:15)."
