There are so many places to look for satisfaction, and only one place in which that satisfaction is guaranteed. And that is in Jesus, our Rock and our Salvation.
Commentary: | Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Matthew 11:28
God complained to the prophet Jeremiah about Israel...."they have forsaken me, the spring of living water, and have dug their own cisterns, broken cisterns that cannot hold water." Jeremiah 2:13
Nothing much has changed, has it? We still look for manmade solutions to God-sized problems. We still think we know best. God is like the fire extinguisher at best - you know - BREAK GLASS IN CASE OF EMERGENCY!"
But Jesus offered rest, with no fine print. In our stressed out lives, let's take him up on his offer, and run to him. Let's throw ourselves at his feet, and let him reorder our lives. Our God is a fountain, and before long, we will be totally sold on his water, exclaiming, "All my fountains are in you." Psalm 87:7
