You open Your hand And satisfy the
desire of every living thing.
Where do we go to get what we
need? Maybe that is the wrong question.
What do you desire? At the core, at the deepest placed in your
heart, what do you really, really want?
That answer will point to many
different things. It could be something
that honors God or something that has nothing to do with God. My prayer is for my family is that our desires
will be directed by God and fulfilled only by God.
"And the LORD will continually
guide you, And satisfy your desire in scorched places, And give strength to
your bones; And you will be like a watered garden, And like a spring of water
whose waters do not fail.
Have you noticed how your desires
change? It is when life gets difficult
and situations are out of our control that we need God the most. When we are very thirsty, we want something
to quench our thirst.
In those dark places God shows up and
meets our needs. He is also the one that
turns things around.
That is one of the biggest reasons why
before tough things or tough times come we need to make the hard choices. Choose before the pain how you will
react. Choose how you will work hard to
make your relationships work before the disagreement comes up. Choose to be honest before the opportunity to
lie.
That is when God satisfies our
desire. At the place and the time of our
desire God takes care of His children.
But much like our own children we can choose to do different things or
get our needs met a part from God. Because
of righteousness our desires are met and become more and more like God’s
desires.
The desire of the righteous is only
good, But the expectation of the wicked is wrath.
But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you
will not carry out the desire of the flesh.
May our desires depict a life set in
the direction of honoring God. Let God
satisfy your deepest desires.
"Blessed are those who hunger and
thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.
