Day 229 – Doing whatever we Want whenever we Want WON’T satisfy our every Want!
Today’s Reading: Ezekiel 14 – 16
Ezekiel 16:28-29 “You engaged in prostitution with the Assyrians too, because you were insatiable; and even after that, you still were not satisfied. Then you increased your promiscuity to include Babylonia, a land of merchants, but even with this you were not satisfied.”
If money wasn’t an issue and you could have everything you thought you ever wanted, but didn’t have Jesus, did you know you still wouldn’t be satisfied? You see, The only thing that satisfies our soul is Jesus. The heart that keeps seeking satisfaction is the heart that has a hole the size of Jesus in it. We can try and place lots of different things in it, all different shapes and sizes, but one by one they will each fall out.
We may all of a sudden think, this one fits just right, this job is exactly what I needed, this raise will provide my every want, this baby will bring my marriage together, this man will be the one that completes me, this move will give me a better life, but then there’s a tiny gap and something else needs to fill it before this peg falls out too. However, once we find the ONE thing, the ONLY thing, the thing that will fit everyONES hole just the same and makes them all feel Whole for the first time, they will have found Jesus. And what’s better yet, Jesus can never fall out, He will stay forever. Isn’t that what you’re wanting? Isn’t that what you are seeking? The ability to feel complete, comfortable, and perfectly content?!
What you need is Jesus. That’s it! That’s all! Do you know how to get Him to fill your heart? Just ask Him! Just pray to His Father in Heaven to give you Jesus. Then your desires will line up with His since He lives directly in that perfect, Jesus size home in your heart.
