And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in
Christ Jesus. —Philippians 4:19
People need food, so God provides rain and sunshine. Grass and grain begin to grow and are then made into food for livestock or ground into flour. We cook the flour and meat to make our meals and satisfy our hunger. People also crave love and acceptance. Again, God provides the means to fulfill our needs. He connects two hearts with affection and they are drawn together in marriage to form a unified soul that is born of love. All of our needs will be satisfied once we give our lives to God. After all, if He ensures that even the tiniest sparrows are taken care of, imagine the lengths He will go to for the children made in His image. There is satisfaction guaranteed for all who choose to follow Christ. Things may not always be easy, but no disciple will be left unprepared for the future. The stories of the Bible fill our hunger for knowledge. The need for friendship and acceptance is met through fellowship with others. When you choose a path of righteousness, God will plan for every aspect of your journey. It’s important to remember that this adventure will not be a smooth one. Jesus never said that we wouldn’t suffer, only that we would be strong enough to endure and that we wouldn’t have to go through it alone. Today, find peace in the fact that your future is paid for. Stop worrying and
trust that all of your needs will be met at the right time. That is the satisfaction
of righteousness.
