The righteous has enough to satisfy his appetite, but the belly of the wicked suffers want. (Proverbs 13:25 ESV)
The Path to Enough
Righteousness leads us to the definer and enabler of righteousness: the One True Living God. When our bodies, minds, and souls are striving to serve HIM, righteousness follows.
And the more that righteousness becomes our foundation, framework, ends, and means… the more satisfied we will be with life.
Because that kind of life (righteous rather than my-right-aimed, serving God rather than seeking to be served, loving rather than demanding to be loved), connects us to God Himself.
All appetites become transformed under the focus of the gospel.
We want, perhaps slowly at first, to want what God wants.
We desire, perhaps with gradual awareness, to live alongside Him.
We find that we need, despite our one time rebellion, to know about Christ, to know Christ, and to be known by Christ.
Instead of, in frustration, having to say, “enough is enough!” We can listen to Him saying, “you have enough.”
