Stuffed

"If you don't feel strong desires for the manifestation of the glory of God, it is not because you have drunk deeply and are satisfied. It is because you have nibbled so long at the table of the world. Your soul is stuffed with small things, and there is no room for the great."
— John Piper, from A Hunger for God

Indeed, I count everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. - Philippians 3:8a

My soul is so easily stuffed with small things. I don't count all things as loss. Lord, forgive me for living a life that contradicts what I confess with my mouth.
