In a world that is constantly enticing me with its pleasures and delights, I struggle to maintain a singular focus on God. I struggle to eliminate the idols of my heart and the distractions that I am bombarded with everyday. It is everyday battle and an everyday decision to choose the focuses. It is constant struggle to find my complete and total satisfaction in God and in God alone. The world does have so many things to offer than please the flesh now. It is hard to wait for the ultimate fulfillment of the desires that God has planted within my being. Yet, to seek full and complete satisfaction in Him is the only pursuit worth living for and the only thing that truly satisfies my soul.
I attempt to fill my life with people, books, articles, music, movies, podcasts, blogs, and anything that will drive me and motivate me toward God. Everything else has been cut out of my life and I honestly do not find myself missing any of it. God is the fuller, more complete satisfaction that I crave! My life goal, my life purpose is to be complete satisfied in God. When I am completely satisfied in Him, I will do what delights Him and live in obedience to Him, through the power, grace, and faith which He provides and will return His Glory back to Him.
Yes, I a life in which God is the ultimate delight and satisfaction is the only life worth living.
