I read the most interesting story today about a very successful woman. By the world’s standards she had it all – beauty, brains, connections, money, position, etc. Her attitude “was more like the Billy Joel song: ‘I’d rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints – the sinners are much more fun!’” She wanted nothing to do with God as what she’d seen of those who walked with God was anything but fulfilling.
Yet as the years raced by, no matter where she went or what she did she never quite felt satisfied. The words to Joel’s song became a distant echo in her life. She said, “The fulfillment I was looking for all those years wasn’t somewhere ‘out there.’”
Where are you looking for fulfillment? The Psalmist says the LORD “satisfies the desires of every living thing. … He fulfills the desires of those who fear Him.” (145:16,19) It’s time to stop playing games with Jesus. Half-hearted Sunday only measures won’t bring the satisfaction you’re looking for.
It’s time to pick up your biblical tools (Set Free Nowww), let the Holy Spirit use them to filter out the lie-based messages so you can hear Jesus calling you toward Him, The Source of fulfillment.
