DAILY READINGS: Gen. 24; Job 29-30; Matt. 13:1-23
As for me, I will behold Thy face in righteousness: I shall be
satisfied, when I awake, with Thy likeness. Psalms 17:15
At least ten times the Psalmist speaks of being satisfied. The world
claims to offer satisfaction, but time after time, to our sorrow, we’ve
found that its waters fail. Its joys are shallow and its pleasures fleeting.
Note Jacob’s response in Genesis 45 when he saw the wagons
sent from Egypt for his deliverance, “It is enough, I will go.”
Concerning the things of Christ, can you say from the depths of your
heart, "It is enough, I am satisfied"? —Wm. H. Gustafson
Satisfied with Thee, Lord Jesus, I am blest;
Peace which passeth understanding on Thy breast;
No more doubting, no more trembling, O, what rest! —H. Bennett
