Satisfy Your Thirst

God alone can water a thirsty soul. Don't be deceived into thinking that anything else can satisfy you fully and completely. Chasing after the wrong thing will always leave you disappointed. Only the Lord can cause you to feel satisfied.

O God, You are my God, earnestly will I seek You; my inner self thrists for You, my flesh longs and is faint for You, in a dry and weary land where no water is.
My whole being shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise You with joyful lips.
--- Psalm 63:1,5

My own reflection on this Thought:
* What things can satisfy you in your opinion? Money, fame, luxurious cars and apartments, secured jobs in prestigious company, friends, cozy hang out places? What's your feeling when you wanted something so bad and finally got it? Did you feel satisfy? Or the hunger of bigger and more wonderful thing starting to fill in your mind?
Only God Himself can satisfy yourself, you may search and search and search but eventually will realize the emptiness is still there. God alone can fill the empty hole in our hearts... (-fon-)


Wait on the Lord

God has a perfect timing for everything. Learn to wait on God. This brings Him honor, and it brings you peace.

Wait on the LORD;
Be of good courage,
And He shall strengthen your heart;
Wait , I say, on the LORD!
--- Psalm 27:14


My own reflection on this Thought:
* Waiting might be the hardest thing to do, especially in the midst of uncertainties... But in God's process, lots of time involved a series of waiting.
Wait patiently and grow within the stage of waiting, trust Him coz' His the Almighty God. (-fon-)


Love Is the Foundation

God's love for you is the foundation for your faith, for your freedom from sin, and for your ability to step out in ministry to others without fear.

So that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; and that you, being rooted and grounded in love,
may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth,
and to know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled up to all the fulness of God.
--- Ephesians 3:17-19

My own reflection on this Thought:
* It's impossible in my opinion to minister others if you haven't experienced God's love. It's His Love that enables us to do so. Only the experience of tasting and seeing the beauty of God's love makes us stronger, and make us become a blessing to the people surround us... (-fon-)
