Satisfaction now a days is hard to achieve.
In my experience, there's seems to be something pulling at us at all time. There doesn't seem to be a time for just doing nothing.
To enjoy one another's company without a phone or an app is becoming a thing of the past and with social media, keeping up with the Jones seems to be the thing to strive for yet unattainable making people loose their grip on common sense and what matters most.
It's time we get back to the basics and realize the only satisfaction we are going to have is when we acknowledge Jesus as Lord of Lord's.
God Bless.
“You Will Be Satisfied In The Kingdom Of God”
I once saw two photos. In the first one, all the possessions of a typical family in the USA were piled up on their front lawn, and it was an enormous pile! In the second photo, all the possessions of a typical family in the third world were spread out on a single blanket. At the end of their lives, most people wish that they could have another day, week, or even another minute of time with their loved ones. What matters most is not the stuff, but the people. When you live your life in the rat race, you are never satisfied, and that tells you something: that you were never chasing the right thing to start with. That’s why Jesus tells us firstly who he is: he is the “bread of life.” He is telling us that he is the Source. And then Jesus tells us what he can do for us: “he that comes to me shall never hunger; and he that believes on me shall never thirst.” Christ is the one who satisfies, and nothing else will do. Jesus tells us to put him and his Kingdom first, and then we’ll have everything we need and more.
Because in his Kingdom, there’s always much more than enough. Are you dissatisfied with part of your life? What do you still need to do, achieve or receive? If you never did, would Jesus still be enough for you? Think deeply about this, and then go into prayer, asking Christ to be everything for you, so that you may be completely satisfied in him.
