"O God, you are my God,
earnestly I seek you;
my soul thirsts for you,
my body longs for you,
in a dry and weary land
where there is not water.
I have seen you in the sanctuary
and beheld your power and your glory.
Because your love is better than life,
my lips will glorify you.
I will praise you as long as I live,
and i your name will I lift up my hands."
Oh how I long to long for God the way David longed for God! I see that as I "quench" my hunger and thirst with the things of this world, I am only feeding that appetite. When I feed on the things of the Lord, it is that appetite that grows. Even if it means walking through the desert as David did, am I willing to wait for the true satisfaction that only comes from the Lord?
