In Proverbs 27 v6,we read, /Hell and destruction are never full,so the eyes of man are never satisfied/,the man who wrote this, knew this truth in his own life, that is Solomon.He tells us something we all know,as regards death it is never satisfied,and wont be until Christ returns [, 1 Corinthians 15 v 54-57] and then death will die,as the poet has said.From death he goes on to mention, so the eyes of man are never satisfied, it is sad but true, Charles Bridges, writing on this,declares,/Man is always seeking for what he can never find,satisfaction in earthly things/. Earthly things cannot satisfy the deepest longings of the soul,the Rolling Stones sung a song ,called,I cant get no satisfaction. Jesus often reminded people that only He could satisfy humanities needs,only in Him is there true satisfaction. In John 4 He spoke to a women who came to draw water from a well,and this is what He said ,/But whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again. But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst ,but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life/ Consider, are all the nice goodies that you have,really satisfying the deepest need of your heart?,of course not, only Jesus can do that.
A prayer....../ Dear Lord open our eyes to where true satisfaction is to be found,not in earthly things but in You. Amen /
