Needs

Luke 12:31 NLT

Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and he will give you everything you need.

Remember all the things on our Christmas list? The children probably had every good thing they saw on television commercials on their lists. Even parents have a long list of needs. Few received all they had on their list even though they may have prayed for them as well.

You see, our needs list usually contains our wants and not those things we really need. I believe our Father God wants us to be happy, but that does not mean He will give us all we think will make us happy. Our happiness from receiving things is usually short lived.

Think back about all those things you really needed to have last Christmas. Now try to remember the last time you actually used them. Perhaps you do not even remember where they are. So much for really needing them.

I believe that Father God supplies all we need to live here on this earth in these earthly vessels. He heals us. He delivers us. He guides us down the path of righteousness. As we accept where we are, He moves us up to a better place. He supplies all we need to do what He has for us to accomplish our purpose while here on earth.
