Food for the Lord is a manifestation of your utter devotion and love of the Lord. It must come from your heart, not from your kitchen. I am hungry, but only for your love.
You are so immersed in life on earth, in all its aspects, some pleasant, some not so pleasant and you associate yourself with those aspects. Turn to the higher self, the real you within, and then slowly the higher self will begin to manifest and your life will change, your whole outlook will change because, when this happens, you are bound to be happy. It is the beginning of the path to ultimate and permanent bliss. Association with life on the material plane can never bring permanent relief for the needs of the soul. It is merely a playground for the desires of the lower aspects of man; the body, mind and senses. There is desire, there is mind, but there is no way to satisfy the unquenchable thirst of the mind and all its many desires. You can have this or that, but it simply leads to more desires, and then even more.
But free will always exists in man. While you are ignorant about spiritual matters, there is no choice. However, as you become awakened, the knowledge comes to the surface and you are presented with a challenge. You are in that position now. It can last over many lifetimes, until you make the only choice that can resolve the dilemma and lead you out of the darkness towards the light. All physical experience is an aspect of darkness, or the unreal. It is like a temporary fog which covers the ground and obscures the beautiful view that actually lies in front of you. You are the creator of that fog and only you can clear it away.
Think about these things and know that the solution to your problems lies in releasing that power house of love that is stored within. When you open the gates and allow that love, My love, to pour out and manifest itself all around you, then the fog will clear and you will see the way ahead. When that happens you will be offering Me the food for which I was patiently waiting.
