Psalm 106:13-15
They soon forgat His works; they waited not for His counsel:
But lusted exceedingly in the wilderness, and tempted God in the desert.
And He gave them their request; but sent leanness into their soul.
Lusts realized lead to leanness of the soul.
It is God's grace to withhold from us that which our flesh desires. It is His wrath in allowing us to have whatever we crave. It ends is leanness: fat bodies and thin souls; full flesh and skeletal spirits.
When we worship our bellies, we starve our souls.
