What can truly satisfy you?

God really got me, the other day :) and its so amazing - with just one sentence from Him he can turn a life around, or at least more to the right direction.

So here's what i (re)discovered:

Do you ever feel like you have to get noticed in order to feel happy about yourself? Do you ever get jealous of others when you see that they have and recieve the very things that YOU so desperately need? Your friends have the best girlfriends/boyfriends, houses, cars, pianos, salary, but you - not really.
Do you ever think that you should do something with your life, go to places, get the best education, meet people, look the best in order to feel satisfied and happy about yourself?
But what if you would get all those things? A super-loving spouse, a big nice house with a huge flatscreen and all the STUFF you ever (think you) want...? Im telling you - you would feel as emty and unsatisfied as you did before... (Unless you keep yourself so busy that you dont even have the time to think and look inside you.)
The movies, the food, the shiny things, the attention, whatever - many times its just the substitute for the real thing. We are so hungry and thirsty that we fill ourselves with just about anything!
But what we really need is Him, His uncontitional love, forgiveness, life and joy.
Im telling you, nothing else besides the true Love of the Father, Jesus and the Presence of the Holy Spirit can ever satisfy you! Nothing Ever.

When you realize that He is your true Love, Life, Joy and Source, you will start enjoying every day with Him so much that you cant even wait to get up and start a new day!

"Come, everyone who thirsts, come to the waters, come buy and eat!
Come buy wine and milk without price.
Why do you spend your money for that which does not satisfy?
Listen diligently to Me and eat what is good, and delight yourselves in rich food.
Incline your ear and come to Me; hear that your soul may live;"
"Seek the Lord while He may be found;
call upon Him while He is near."
Isaiah 55:1-3,6

"On the last day of the feast, the great day, Jesus stood up and cried out: "If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink. Whoever believes in Me as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water." Now this He said about the Spirit, whom those who believe in Him were to receive."
John 7:37-39
