Dissatisfied
I heard a term today that I’d never heard before: “chronic dissatisfaction.” This is certainly one way to sum up the spirit of the twenty-first century. If there was every a time in history when people were dissatisfied, restless, and unthankful for what they have or their lot in life, it is now.
The good news is, there is permanent and lasting satisfaction found in the Lord Jesus Christ. You can be “satisfied with favour, and full with the blessing of the Lord” (Deuteronomy 33:23). “For He satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness” (Psalm 107:9). People are wasting time and spending money looking for inward happiness and gratification, when the Bible says: “Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price. Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your labour for that which satisfieth not” (Isaiah 55:1-2)? Only the One who made us can satisfy our souls. Turning to Him for His free salvation will bring satisfaction now, in this life, and untold satisfaction and joy when with Him for eternity in the Father’s house.
