They shall eat, but not be satisfied. (Hosea 4:10 ESV)
Satisfaction
May this forecast not refer to you!
If you consume food, expecting that to give your life meaning, you will not be satisfied.
If you spend money, expecting stuff to give your life meaning, you will not be satisfied.
If you use resources, expecting such use to give your life meaning, you will not be satisfied.
If you travel widely, expecting such trips to give your life meaning, you will not be satisfied.
If you stay home, expecting your family to give your life meaning, you will not be satisfied.
If you work hard to be entertained, expecting entertainment to give your life meaning, you will not be satisfied.
If you read books after books after books, expecting knowledge to give your life meaning, you will not be satisfied.
As simple as it sounds… satisfaction is only found in knowing the One True Living God.
And that is only through Christ.
