Feeling discontent? These verses will remind you who God is!
Do you sense a nagging dissatisfaction within you?
Unfortunately, I find myself in that posture often.
Yet, Jesus promises satisfaction for those who hunger and thirst for right relationship with Him (Matthew 5:6).
My dissatisfaction serves as a heart check and an invitation to repentance and renewed intimacy with the Lord.
With open arms, he invites me to confess the empty things I’m longing for. Then, he tenderly offers me the communion with him that I so desperately need.
Lord, forgive me. Forgive my prayerlessness. Forgive my lack of hunger for you. I desire more of you, but I have soul amnesia. I constantly forget how desperate and needy I am and how powerful and willing you are. I settle for so much less than you offer.
Lord, I need a Spirit infusion. Hook me up to the IV machine of your Spirit, and start a constant drip of grace to flow through my entire being. I am desperate for more connection, intimacy, awe, and wonder of who you are and how much you love me.
The Spirit invites us to attach to the IV of Scripture to revive our soul afresh.
