sweetness

psalm 119:103
"how sweet are Your words to my taste! yes, sweeter than honey to my mouth!"
the other day i was with a friend and some comment was made about how much i love sweets. it's no secret. i have little or no self-control when it comes to eating the sweet stuff. especially chocolate. i just love it. the next day i was just spending some time with the Lord, enjoying the sweetness of His presence. and He made those two thoughts collide. and here was the result: what if the sweetness of His presence was such a reality to me that i never had the desire to eat any sweets because i already have His presence? wow. i started thinking about how often i have cravings for sweets. He wants me to literally taste the sweetness of His words, His presence... to stop running to the kitchen when i have a craving for something sweet, and instead retreat into my room for a taste of His presence.
