Needs

I always think I need a lot of things. I need that new shirt, I need to clean my car, I need a Diet Vanilla Dr. Pepper from sonic, or a cookie from Eileens! But an event that has taken place in the last couple days has really changed my view on what I "need". Evey time I have thought I have needed something it has drawn me back to the thought of what I really need more than anything in this world. I stop and think do I honestly think about my own needs of worldly things more than I think about the one who meets all our needs. I have my needs and my wants all mixed up, I dont trust in the plan of the one who said I will meet all your needs. I serve the giver of time but want things to happen on my time, I serve the God of living bread but want to feed myself, I serve the God that makes the old gone and the new come but want to change myself, I serve the God who created me in his image but want to look the way the world tells me. My only need is to truly listen, love, and serve the God who is patiently waiting on me the God who loves me more than I will ever know, who finds joys in meeting my true needs.

Philippians 4:19
And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus.

He meets our needs not our wants, he meets the things that line up to his glory and his word.
