We Are Never Satisfied

Scripture Judges 15:18 Then he became very thirsty; so he cried out to the LORD and said, “You have given this great deliverance by the hand of Your servant; and now shall I die of thirst and fall into the hand of the uncircumcised?”

Observation: Instead of just thanking God for how He delivered this great victory, Samson complained. Boy does that sound like me. God works one miracle after another and all I can see is what I don’t have or what I want. God is not our genie He is our Master and doesn’t have to supply us with anything. We should be so grateful for what He gives us each day and trust Him for what we need. Faith that is what God is looking for not commands from His servants. We want everything, but deserve nothing.

Application: I need to be more grateful to God and have an attitude of gratitude each day. I need to thank God for everything realizing He owes me nothing. Every good thing is from God and I need to embrace His love and provision with joy and gratitude. I also need to share with others my generous God and point out how He blesses them each day.

Prayer: My Lord, thank you for all that I have and am. Everything comes from you and I deserve nothing. Thank you for your love, mercy and generosity, I will never be worthy, but may I do something each day that might bring a smile to your face.
