The other night I kept drinking one glass of tea after another. I just couldn't quench my thirst. Incidentally I've given up dark sodas like coke, and dr. pepper...its been two years. (Seldom drink 7-ups etc). There are times I just don't feel satisfied. I think that my "Missions" class could've gone better. And other things in my life are not as I would like them to be.Satisfy us in the morning with your steadfast love,that we may rejoice and be
glad all our days. Ps. 90: 14
I felt like that this morning. So I went to the library and I picked up a book on missions. One of the essays was written by John Piper. He was supposed to speak on thelogical training for pastors and missionaries, but the bulk of his paper was on the importance of knowing God. Above all other things we should strive to know Him. And he added his famous quote in that paper.
God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in Him.
I think God was sharing with me Ps. 90:14 as I realized my longings were in the wrong direction. Are my affections solely on him? Do I bring glory to God by being most satisified in Him?
In a few days I will be traveling to East Asia with my wife and her family. I will be gone for about three weeks. Will I have access to Facebook? Blogspot? I read somewhere most likely not...which may be good...I have been contemplating a fast of sorts in regards to FB and blogging.
