“REMEMBER THAT YOU LIVE IN a fallen world: an abnormal world tainted by sin. Much frustration and failure result from your seeking perfection in this life. There is nothing perfect in this world except GOD. That is why closeness to GOD satisfies deep yearnings and fills you with Joy. GOD has planted longing for perfection in every human heart. This is a good desire, which The LORD alone can fulfill. But most people seek this fulfillment in other people and earthly pleasures or achievements. Thus they create idols, before which they bow down. GOD will have no other gods before HIM. Make GOD the deepest desire of your heart. Let GOD fulfill your yearning for perfection. ” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young
“You shall have no other gods before me.” EXODUS 20 : 3
Delight yourself in the LORD and he will give you the desires of your heart. PSALM 37 : 4
Prayer: God only you can fill the deep yearning in my soul. When I have trouble in this life, help me to remember I live between two gardens, Eden and Heaven. One day, I will be in my perfect body with you for eternity. Thank you Jesus for making it possible. Amen.
