God satisfies.



"Open wide your mouth and I will fill it."

- Ps. 81:10

God satisfies.

I know that people say only God can truly satisfy.
But I think I'm finally grasping the depth of this truth.

All of God for all of us.

"His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness.." - 2 Pet. 1:13

".. asking God to fill you with the knowledge of His will through all spiritual wisdom and understanding." - Col. 1:9

"May the Lord direct your hearts into God's love and Christ's perseverance." - 2 Thess. 3:5

".. never tire of doing what is right." - 2 Thess. 3:13

-----

People will let us down.. because we, as humans, come up short at times.
It's not that people intentionally plan to do this, but sometimes, it happens.. because they are not God - who is the only One who can truly meet all our needs all the time.
Even spouses will let the other down.. which is why it is important to understand grace with each other.. and to look to God for fulfillment.

God is always wanting to fill us with greater truth - but it is up to us to receive it.
