John 6:35 (NKJV) 35 And Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never hunger, and he who believes in Me shall never thirst.
Having Jesus Christ will quench every bit of hunger and thirst we will ever have for anything.
That doesn’t mean we won’t like nice things or have any desires. We just need to remember that He will give us the desires of our hearts as we put Him first in everything.
With receiving and believing in Jesus, there comes an element of fulfillment, comfort and peace that fills us with the utmost satisfaction. Even though we enjoy certain things, it doesn’t mean that we have to have them to fill an emptiness within ourselves.
We have already filled the emptiness with Him. He comes in and fills that hole of insecurity, fear, greed, etc. He takes the place of every want and every need.
Do we desire other things at times? Of course. And do you know what? That’s alright, as long as our heart is not stuck on the thing or things, but our delight is in Him first and foremost!
Psalm 37:4 (NKJV)4 Delight yourself also in the Lord, And He shall give you the desires of your heart.
Keeping everything in its place is what God watches for. And that shows Him our heart and what place He holds there.
Amen. Enjoy Him and the desires He may bless us with.
