“Satisfy me in the morning with your unfailing love.” -Psalm 90:14
I would be satisfy if *fill in the blanks*.
This statement has been around for so long and has caused us into a frenzy of chasing after things or relationships or status, thinking we will be satisfy if we have it. This is it, I will be happy if I have this.
Not to mean that it's wrong to be going after all these things, which some we truly need it, but it would be sad to think we can be satisfy if we have a certain thing, or being in a relationship with someone.
I'm not saying not to love your spouse or your other half. But if we are trying to finding the satisfaction of our heart in them, we are bound to be disappointed.
C.S. Lewis said, “If I find in myself a desire which no experience in this world can satisfy, the most probable explanation is that I was made for another world.”
Our hearts were created for someone and there is a longing for Him. Until we see Him face to face, eye ball to eye ball, we are just trying to substitute the longing with something else; the right clothes, the right music, the thousand of friends we have on Facebook.
And see here the other thing, we ask God to satisfy us in the morning, and it may not happen immediately. Don't go rushing into finding substitution, be content with your dissatisfaction and wait for Him for His arrival.
“Taste and see the Lord is good. How blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him.” -Psalm 34:8
To quote Jon Foreman from Switchfoot, “It was a beautiful letdown, the day I knew, that all the riches this world had to offer me, will never do.”
