Satisfaction

Satisfaction. It's easy (and often tempting) to try to find our satisfaction in various things/people. But Jesus calls us to himself. And trust me--oftentimes, this is the last place that I want to go. Food, television, people, Facebook, etc., seem to be easier. So what do you do when you avoid "quiet time" and prayers like the plague?

I know that there are numerous opinions on this one, but mine is simple (and from current experience): When you can, breathe. Say one word (if there is one). And if you can, read TRUTH--found in Scripture alone. Don't be afraid or ashamed of where you are. If all you can cry out is "Help," then cry it out. If it's a sigh, then go there as well. But whatever it is, be real.

And let TRUTH sink deep inside to every fiber of your being. No matter what, cling to this:

You make all things beautiful. Hallelujah! Trials and testing prove there's gold. Hallelujah! You turn morning into JOY. You satisfy my soul with Your love!!!
