I'm Thirsty!

Now there is a line that I have heard and said many times. The next question is usually, what do you want? I usually have to go through a nice little song and dance routine with my daughter when she says "I'm thirsty." She never knows what she really wants, while all the time I know exactly what she needs. The problem is showing her that what I am presenting her is what she really wants. Does this sound familiar? I bet it does. We come to God and say Father I really need some help can you come with me and help. Is it not funny how somehow or another we end up treating Him much the same way my daughter treats me when she is thirsty. God says hey you told me you needed my help and I am here to help you. What we fail to realize is that He also knows what is best for us too. He knows how to fill our thirst. The Psalmist tell us in (Psalm 23:5)You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil;My cup runs over. In (John 4:13)13 Jesus answered and said to her, “Whoever drinks of this water will thirst again, 14 but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst. But the water that I shall give him will become in him a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life.” Time and time again God knows just what we need, but for some reason we keep refusing what he offers. God loves to hear us say "I'm Thirsty", this is how He wants us to come to Him, thirsting for Him.
