And my God will meet all your
needs according to his glorious riches in Christ Jesus. —Philippians 4:19
My purpose is that they may be
encouraged in heart and united in love, so that they may have the full riches
of complete understanding, in order that they may know the mystery of God,
namely, Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. —Colossians
2:2–3
Your needs
and My riches are a perfect fit. I never meant for you to be self-sufficient.
Instead, I designed you to need Me not only for daily bread but also for
fulfillment of deep yearnings. I carefully crafted your longings and feelings
of incompleteness, to point you to Me. Therefore, do not try to bury or deny
these feelings. Beware also of trying to pacify these longings with lesser
gods: people, possessions, power.
Come to Me
in all your neediness, with defenses down and with desire to be blessed. As you
spend time in My Presence, your deepest longings are fulfilled. Rejoice in your
neediness, which enables you to find intimate completion in Me.
