Because We are So Easily Satisfied.

Why am i so shallow in my knowledge of God? Why am i always only ankle-deep in the river of abundant life?

I guess it's because i am so easily satisfied.

I am satisfied. I put my tithe into the bag and my soul is appeased. "I've done my duty." Sure i've become a cheerful giver because i thought that my relationship with God is justified by that cash i put in.

I am satisfied. I have my random little conversations with God throughout the day and i thought i have communed with Him. Sure God loves these, but yet He desires so much more. Where's the adoration? Where are the silent moments as i kneel before God, beholding His glory? And where are the moments i seek His heart about how He really felt on things rather than going on and on about how i feel?

I am satisfied. I spend a few minutes each day on that Bible guide or commentary, thinking that my spirit has been fed. But never have i realize that i only took a nibble at that great feast God has laid out for me.

I am satisfied. I no longer judge the condition of my soul in His light but in the light of my accomplishments of "Christian duties".

Oh, while we are "satisfied", God is insulted and the enemy glad, because he had blindfolded us with COMPLACENCY.
