The Opened Hand

Psalm 145:16--"You open your hand and satisfy the desires of every living thing."

Isn't that a wonderful thought? God wants to satisfy us. I'm having trouble grasping that thought, though, for too many times I've been dissatisfied. Am I expecting too much? Have I been given too much that I don't appreciate what I have? The psalmist failed to mention that we need to be thankful for the gifts God has given. It's important to be thankful. God has given me so much--why do I still have a hole that's unfilled? This post has been very difficult for me to write. I've erased more than typed. It has caused me to think. I've been expecting people to fill the hole for me instead of God. God, fill the hole in my soul.
