Day 21 - Love is Satisfied in God


Love is satisfied in God. This means that if I have nothing but God, I am satisfied. If my husband were to perish, I am satisfied in God. If my Kendall Rose were to go away, I am satisfied in God. If I am laid off from my job and can't find work, I am satisfied in God. If I am sick in my body and can't get well, I am satisfied in God. If my mother is called home to be with the Lord, I am satisfied in God.


I don't love God because of what he does, I love Him because of who he is. Because he first loves me. This is my prayer.


I also want to share the other side of this. If I live in a mansion, I am satisfied with God. If I am driving a Bentley, I am satisfied in God. If I am blessed with 3 healthy children, I am satisfied in God. If I am a General Manager at P&G, I am satisfied in God. If I am healthy and my parents live beyond 100 years old, I am still satisfied in God.


Even as God is blessing me, I will remember that God is my joy. God is the reason for all of the blessings I have. My push is to stay in God's word, regardless of the situation. I don't want God to have to send bad situations my way for me to stay focused on Him. I want God to get the glory for everything good thing that happens to me.


I desire to be satisfied in God. That way, I am not caught up in the situations of life. I just rest in the Lord. Why? Because I am satisfied.


Be satisfied.
