What Do You Hunger For?

Matthew 5:6

Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,

For they will be filled.

There are very few times in my life

When I experience…

Fullness.

Most of the time

(Though not always)

There is that sense of…

Okay… What’s Next?

Or...

That was great...

So how could I have even more?

What about you?

What do you hunger and thirst for?
What do you... Crave?

Might it be more and greater…

Admiration or Approval
Fame or Friendship

Comfort or Cash
Position or Power
Love or Laughter...

 Hell, maybe you just want that someone would give a damn. 

Righteousness.

You know things really aren’t right in this world…

Not here... Not now... Not yet.

I have even heard it’s under a curse…

Something called…

Sin.

Ahhh…

But here is the beauty and hope of the Gospel…

There is a time coming…

A time in the already…

But not quite yet…

Where everything…

Yes… Everything

Will be made…

Right.

Oh Father God,

To be filled…

To know and experience Your Life in me…

To be consumed by Your Spirit of Life…

In all ways

All the time

Everywhere…

This is the hunger and thirst for Righteousness.

Give me this my Lord…

                                                     So that I may be filled indeed.         

Amen
