We’ve always known that people generally enjoy a certain level of stimulation, but it was the Transactional Analysis school that popularised the idea of ‘stimulus hunger’. Considering the amount of time people spend on their smartphones it’s not hard to believe in the concept! Opinions differ on just how beneficial such stimulation devices are for humanity, and the debate is particularly heated in relation to smartphone use by children and teens. There doesn’t seem to be any consensus on this. But there’s one thing of which we can be sure – individuals of every age will always seek stimulation. How do you manage your appetite for stimulation? Is it soap-operas, meeting friends, playing computer games, or what? We are all very familiar with physical and psychological stimulation, but spiritual stimulation is generally
less well known. By connecting with God, we only ever receive input of the highest quality which develops us and transforms us into His likeness. This is the work of the Holy Spirit. Choose today to walk and talk with Jesus and you will discover the only thing that will fully satisfy the hunger of your soul.
