6 "Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.
I want to hunger and thirst for righteousness. But I feel like I'm not very hungry or thirsty. I know in my head that Jesus is the only real satisfaction, but I allow myself to think that other stuff can satisfy, even though I know in my head that it doesn't. I am so tired of running and working so hard at work thinking that if I finish this project or if I land that next big project, somehow that will make me feel better. Maybe I am seeking the approval of men instead of God. Anyway, I am tired of it, because it doesn't satisfy. At least with God, you get satisfaction and rest. With the world, you just end up empty handed and empty inside. And tired.Heavenly Father, I am sorry that I don't hunger and thirst for righteousness. I want to. Please help me, Lord. Please turn my heart to you instead of whatever it is focused on now. Lord, please let me taste and see that you are good. I know you are because I have in the past. How is it that my heart can drift away so quickly? I love you, and I need you. I pray in the name of Jesus Christ.
