“Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
for they shall be filled.”
Matthew 5:6 

Christian author, Robert Schmidgall, said, “The scriptures often exhort us to be filled with godly virtues—which means what? Hoe do we know if we are “full of goodness” (Rom. 15:14), for example? Think a moment about a water-saturated sponge. If we push down with our finger even slightly, water runs out onto the table. We immediately know what fills the interior or pockets of the sponge. The same is true of ourselves. We can tell what fills us on the inside by what comes out under pressure.”
