As the song says, "I can't get no, satisfaction."
however, as a believer, we have full satisfaction in Jesus.
But, why is it SO gosh-darn hard to find satisfaction in Christ alone?
My mind has been trying to figure this one out for days....with no avail.
Why is it that me, as a women, seek my satisfaction in places other than my daddy? And I mean S-E-E-K.
I have found myself rummaging through Target searching for another perfect dress for a group date, because one of the 20 that I have in my closet won't be good enough.
I have found my eyes and mind wondering toward women around me who are cuter, more "together", and most certainly happier than me curious what makes them tick.
I have found myself disheartened when I don't receive a speedy response to an urgent e-mail.
But what I haven't found is satisfaction.
I haven't stumbled upon the something that will make me smile continuously and keep me upbeat.
As I sit here in Panera, a bit frustrated that the bf didn't have time for a lunch date, I wonder....what am I doing wrong?
I try to pin point one thing that I can change, or a certain something I can cling to more, or less...and nothing.
As I have sought what to do, I have had an epiphany: what if instead of seeking, I STOP and be sought.
Not in a worldly sense, but a spiritual one.
What if I slow myself, my thoughts, my emotions down and just listen.
I have a feeling that what I will find is an eternal satisfaction.....
In looking the past few hours at lies we believe as daughter's of the King, I have noticed a lot about TRUTH.
What is truth, where do we get truth, how do we process truth....I believe what I need is a lesson in simply LISTENING to the TRUTH.
