Matthew 5:6 "Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled." - Hunger illustrates a GREAT desire. When a person is hungery the stomach begins to hurt, and strong cravings for food begin to take "control" until the stomach is filled. If you hunger for ANYTHING in this world, you will NEVER be filled. Only when you hunger after righteousness will you be filled and satisfied.
