Why is everyone hungry for more? “More, more,” they say. “More, more.” I have God’s more-than-enough, more joy in one ordinary day than they get in all their shopping sprees…. –Psalm 4:6-7 MSG

More, more! NOT!

Why is everyone hungry for more? “More, more,” they say. “More, more.” I have God’s more-than-enough, more joy in one ordinary day than they get in all their shopping sprees…. –Psalm 4:6-7 MSG

Shopping? Did someone say shopping spree? Ooh baby! Count me in! A shopping spree may not look the same for everyone—some may look forward to going to the grocery store, the lumberyard, or a yard sale! But is that what you want? A temporary high that can only be found in the right convergence of events: the time, the place, the money, the item? Well, yeah, maybe sometimes.But really, you have what is needed for not just a joy-spree, but for an every-day, life-altering, joy—God’s “more-than-enough”! And it’s there, available, on a normal, “ordinary” day. Pretty cool!Oh Father, thank You so much for what You provide: life and breath, stability, hope-in-suffering, joy that can eclipse life circumstances, or a blink-of-an-eye high. Please remind me of Your “more-than-enough,” especially during those moments when I’m thinking “More, more.”

Thank God for joy that is available in your everyday moments.

Ask Him to help you look to Him for His ever-present joy when you’re longing for a temporary happy-moment or thing.

Kate recently began reading through Psalms, via The Message version, because "they make me think," which led to these short devotionals.  She hopes her free-thought association writing will draw you closer to the King and His amazing, wonderful, powerful love!
