Like a drug that we don't know we are addicted to we go about meeting our daily "needs". and they just keep getting bigger. At one point we will have to choose to stop. We can always eat more and the taste will never fully satisfy.
When we are weaning off of it it tells us that we NEed it. We must have that next sandwich. It is hardly a choice. Then we are super charged fleshy and need other things. What I need is contentment.
What I need is grace and knowledge of God's presence.
Is there an easy way to do it? Will it be pure pain? can it be pure joy if I adopt the right mindset?
Where is my desire to overcome? Where is my want for deeper relationship with the LORD? It is there and I am weak. Operate in my weakness to make me strong LORD. Do not let carnality and loneliness spring up. Do not let me be always running to people when I should be running to you.
