I'm trying to embrace this truth this morning.
What an amazing truth it is!
God provides SO many blesses, but none that truly satisfy the need, or longing in my heart for joy like He does.
I read on another blog this morning that we look to be joy-filled from lots of different things.
Right now, for me, it's job security. I just feel like if I had my dream job as a k-6 teacher right now, everything would be perfect. My joy would be complete.
Um...HELLO Kari?!
So. false.
Whether I had that type of job or not, I would find that even that wouldn't bring full, and complete joy or perfection in life. I would still always be looking to the next and the next thing to satisfy.
God may pour in the blessings but I want to strive to remember that NONE of these things are necessary or things I deserve. I'm not entitled to them and God still remains to be the one thing/person that I truly need.
Amen?
:)
