Read it! Psalm 17
As for me, I will be vindicated and will see your face; when I awake, I will be satisfied with seeing your likeness.
(vs. 15)
Think it through
I struggle with wanting.
I want to eat. I want to sleep. I want to buy stuff. I want to talk about myself and tell you my opinions. (And so here I am blogging.) Sometimes I just want… I don’t even know what it is. It’s an ache, a hole.
We all want. In fact, I think that unspecified craving is the root of most our sins. Our way, not God’s, gives us the quick fix—a brief, unrewarding satisfaction.
