A Better View

It is an amazing perspective to look on the sin in your life through the lens of contentment in Christ. Whatever urgent lust had seemed so impossibly attractive is revealed in its true form: a lie, spoken by a dead heart, believed by a frail mind, and acted upon by a corrupted will. The lie is this; that anything can feign to be as immensely satisfying as God himself.

Examine yourself, Christian. Expose yourself to the light and let your faults be clearly visible, that you may give them over to God. Look inward, unbeliever. Search out for yourself why it is that your consumption fails to satisfy - why it is that you must continually seek contentment, but are perpetually short of arriving there.

It is only God that will satisfy you - He is your highest calling.
