Satisfaction
Lately the word satisfied, or satisfaction keeps jumping out to me. I was reading through Isaiah 53 and verses 10-11 speak about Jesus and say...
It was the Lord’s will to crush him and cause him to suffer, and though the Lord makes his life an offering for sin, he will see his offspring and prolong his days, and the will of the Lord will prosper in his hand. 11 After he has suffered, he will see the light of life and be satisfied; by his knowledge my righteous servant will justify many, and he will bear their iniquities.
Our satisfaction is found in Christ. When we walk in the light there is satisfaction.
Here are a couple of other verses to meditate on today:
Psalm 107:9 -For he satisfies the longing soul, and the hungry soul he fills with good things.
Proverbs 19:23 -The fear of the Lord leads to life, and whoever has it rests satisfied; he will not be visited by harm.
Today's communion is a time of gratitude for all that Jesus suffered for us and that in him there is satisfaction. And we are asking God for wisdom and understanding of the satisfaction that is found in Christ and for help walking in His satisfaction at greater levels from this point on.
Today's Health/Fitness Tip
For those that are trying to get leaner the easiest way is to cut out the extra snacking and unplanned food. Eat consistently balanced meals in a good rhythm. Eat until you are satisfied and cut out the extras and unplanned food. It can often be this simple. We don't need to cut out a bunch of food groups or do anything extreme.
I am praying for you.
