Do you really know Hunger?

Don’t Be a Fool-Eat For Fuel!

Welcome brothers and sisters. This morning I’d like to bring your attention to a very important issue HUNGER! Now I know all of you out there have experienced hunger. You’ve allowed hunger to control your lives at times. Some of you have allowed hunger to drive you to over stuff yourselves. Some of you may even fear hunger and at the first sign of a tummy rumbling you are dashing to the refrigerator to fill up up on excess goobs of sweets and fats. **several heads nodding** Some of you may NOT even know what it really means to be hungry because you have allowed your senses to get so out of whack you are out of touch with your bodies.

I am going to sum up in one simple sentence my views about hunger because I want to talk about an even more important topic - Hunger Awareness Day. All you need to know about hunger is: EATING MORE THEN YOUR BODY NEEDS IS A WASTE! Pure and simple brothers and sisters - put that saying on your refrigerator and cabinet doors and don’t forget it! Make a commitment to stop wasting food.

Now I’d like to bring your attention to a topic that is a very important issue, real hunger - people are going truly hungry every day in the world, children are starving to death because there is no food or water.

Tuesday, June 5, 2007, marks the sixth Hunger Awareness Day.

How will YOU contribute to stopping real hunger? Can you give up a doughnut or a candy bar to donate a few pennies to helping someone who truly is hungry? Can you stop wasting food by eating gallons of ice cream and dozens of cookies in order to make a healthy meal for someone in your neighborhood who is struggling and going truly hungry? I know you can! I know you can dig deep and stop the waste! Hallelujah!

Before you leave today, brothers and sisters, I ask each and every one of you to take a few moments to pause each day and consider how you can stop the waste of food and to eat only when you truly need to nourish your bodies, and if you can find ways to help those who are truly hungry then please do.
