Revelations 7:16 Hunger & Thirst

Good morning everyone!!! How are you doing on this beautiful Lords day? Well, I do hope and pray. Yes, God is good all the time, and all the time God is good. Okay, here we go...... Have you ever been hungry, wanted something, but didn't really know what you were craving? You may be at home and you snack on this, then that, then something else, and no matter what, nothing solves that hunger? Then.......... after foraging on many non-satisfying items who are thirsty!! Yep, then water, coffee, tea, soda, nothing satisfies that thirst. Each item you try just does not do the trick. So, what happens? We either give up or continue searching. We may finally find that elusive item to eat and drink.......but by the time we found it we were FULL of everything else and then could not fully enjoy the wonderful food and drink we finally located. This is like our life today. Why do so many people seek alcohol, drugs, outside pleasures (4 wheelers, jet ski's, boat, golf, racing, etc.) pornography, cursing, off color jokes, negative talk, etc. They are hungry for something, they are thirsting for something, but they don't know what. Could they be looking for something to make their life complete? Searching for that elusive morsel or beverage. Where is it, where could it be? Matthew 25:35 "FOR I WAS HUNGRY, AND YOU FED ME. I WAS THIRSTY, AND YOU GAVE ME DRINK........" Here Jesus is saying we offered food and drink but man says when did we do this? These are acts of mercy. But let's look at Revelation. Revelation 7:16 "THEY WILL NEVER AGAIN BE HUNGRY OR THIRSTY; THEY WILL NEVER BE SCORCHED BY THE HEAT OF THE SUN." God will take care of his children, and will no longer thirst eternally. This reminds me of the country western song....lookin' for love in all the wrong places....which is true. Many look for an everlasting love and it becomes material instead of spiritual. We also have a song from the 60's.... I can't get no....satisfaction!! We know where true love and satisfaction is. This is through our Lord and saviour Jesus Christ. So many distractions that will detour us from our daily walk with the Lord. Can't get total love or satisfaction until we STOP, DROP & PRAY!!! Let Jesus lead us in all we do! Tough road to hoe, many many distractions, diversions, items that cause our head to turn and our walk strays. Be merciful to others, seek ye the Lord, and you will have life everlasting. Thank you for reading today. Have a super and blessed day in the Lord. Pray for family, friends, yourself, ones on this list, and enjoy being a child of God.
In Christ's Love and Grace
