Hunger for God compels us to seek the Lord. At times our desire for God overcomes our physical desires, and the ache for God is palpable.

Though David hides in the wilderness, he doesn't stay there physically or spiritually. When we seek God with our whole hearts and souls, he promises to reveal himself to us." -Hungry for God — Margaret Feinberg
