Dear Young Christian:
How often have you seen the advertising promise, “Satisfaction guaranteed”? Sometimes there is the promise of your money back, or some other compensation if you are not totally satisfied with the product or service being offered.
How many times have you bought something, and not been totally satisfied with it? Maybe it was no fault of the manufacturer, but it just didn’t bring the gratification that you had expected. No, things in this world don’t fully satisfy.
However, there is One who has the power to fully and completely satisfy and fill the human heart. That person, of course, is the Lord Jesus Christ. Here is what the Lord says concerning those who know Him, “My people shall be satisfied with My goodness, saith the Lord” (Jeremiah 31:14). We also read, “He satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness” (Psalm 107:9). If you want to have a soul-satisfying week, walk with the Lord and enjoy all the wonderful blessings and good things He has in store for you. If you do, there is “satisfaction guaranteed.”
Your Christian Friend,
Jim Hyland
