Satisfying a Thirst

Related to the mass readings for this Third Sunday of Lent, what does your thinking and behavior suggest who or what you thirst for?
After 16 years of drinking, Matt Talbot replaced his thirst for alcohol with a thirst for God for the remaining 41 years of his life.
Echoing the Calix Society motto, Matt “substituted the cup that stupifies for the cup that sanctifies.”
