All Good Things Come From Above

Psalms 103:5 says, "He satisfies us with goodness, He renews our youth like the eagle." As Christians we believe that all of our needs are taken care by God. James says "that all good things come down from the Father." In our society, we focus on our wants first and our needs last. This current economic crises, I believe, is changing the way that we think. For years we have been concerned about new cars and new houses. We have bought into the thought that we have to have the "best next thing." This thought process does not come to us from the Holy Spirit, but rather from the spirit of this age. In other words, from our adversary the devil. We are taught in scripture to be "content in all situations." Paul says, "whether I am poor or rich, I have learned how to be content." It is not about things for a true believer in Christ. Rather, it is about Him. The "good things" that we are to seek, are the things that God has for us. In Luke chapter 11, Jesus says, "if ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall the Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask Him?" We are to be more concerned with seeking Him than things. We are to pursue Him and ask Him for His Holy Spirit. Seek the good things today. God bless
