It's hard to push away from the table when the food is particularly good. There is an enjoyment to the taste of a freshly grilled hamburger and all the fixings that go with it. Our normal reaction can be to eat past the point of easing hunger and on to ridiculously full. We will keep going back until there is no possible way to fit anything else into our stomachs.
The same principle applies to us spiritually. If we continue to stuff ourselves with our own agenda, selfish ambitions, and self-gratification, we leave no room for God. God can't fill a person that is filled with themselves.
