A question from John Piper to ponder today, "Where do we find our deepest satisfaction--in God or in His gifts?"
Anything or anyone besides our Creator is a cheap imitation that will never fulfill our deepest longings--never. He alone calms our fears. He alone gives strength to the weary. He alone loves us perfectly. He alone heals the broken. He alone cures the selfish heart. He alone breaks addictions and demolishes strongholds. He alone.
Get before Him, friend. Meditate on His Truths. Sit still and listen. He has graciously revealed Himself to us--a rebellious people--in order that we might live these days with purpose and fulfillment. His ways are good and His will can be trusted--even when our understanding might fail.
