Not that I am speaking of being in need, for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content.Philippians 4:11
Meaning of need circumstances in which something is necessary, or that require some course of action; necessity:
I do believe I may need help finding out how many times the word need is in the Bible.
Putting that thought aside for now. As I watch people in general we all have needs some more than others... Some are givers and some are takers. Be honest and look deep within and ask yourself which title do you fall under ?? Giver? Taker?
There are so many needs in our world. But many of us are so busy living our lives that we may have a tendency to overlook many of them.
The words “I need” can become a selfish action. I ask you to take a moment and say with me... I need! And now you finish the sentence ...
Where is your heart? Is your need a monetary want? Then it truly is not a need but a WANT. Many of us get caught up in the rat race of ownership of “things” and lose sight of what we should value most.
Many of us pray for our wants instead of our needs... Do you use your time with our Heavenly Father wisely? Do we bring the needs of others before Him?
Have you ever asked Him, what do may need? Many of us think of Him as an unlimited ATM. We pray and stand there waiting with our hands open ready to receive our materialistic wants...
Do we behave like His spoiled children? Or do we humble ourselves before Him and truly ask Him what can I do for you? What do you need of me today? When we began to shift our hearts and minds towards the needs of others our hearts start to open and we began to see the true value of life and our monetary wants become less important. You may find a love bigger than you even realize existed...You may find a joy that has been hidden deep within. You may find the true meaning of life!!!
It’s Him, It’s always Him
It's His amazing LOVE... That spills out upon the hearts that are willing vessels. Have you felt Him stirring in your soul?
I NEED Him now and forever !!
But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:19
