Are You Satisfied with me?

Last night I got together with a bunch of other Bluerites. It was a great time. During a song, Dan Lukas told us to ask God if he was satisfied with each of us. It was really difficult. I didn't want to hear the answer. When I did ask, I filled my head with thoughts of what I wanted Him to say. I'm used to disappointing people. But you know, you can never really please anybody. Are we supposed to go through life trying to fulfill everybody's expectations of us? It would be impossible. How can we? We should only worry about living up to God's expectations. That will create charachter qualities in us that others will admire and respect. I was writing this morning, emptying my head of all the clutter and I felt a big resonding "YES!" through my body. That was the relief I was waiting for. God is satisfied with us. We are His creation. Because of sin we are incomplete and imperfect. But He sees us as we will someday be, once we decide to drop all and follow Him.
