NEED
Today's reading: Psalm 21-25

"The Lord is my shepherd, I have everything I need." Psalm 23:1 NLT

Need-to be in want; to require; a physiological or psychological requirement for the well-being of an organism.

If you were to ask my not-so-little, little guy, one of his mom's most used phrases, I'm going to guess he would say...Is it a need or is it a want?

He was asked that question as he held up candy in the checkout lane.

He was asked that question as he held up his 10,734th little HotWheels car.

He was asked that question as he looked through Christmas catalogs.

He is asked that question every time he gets a new guitar catalog in the mail and he is looking over it drooling.

This morning, God is asking me the same thing.

He has spoken to my heart...

You have me, Malinda--these requests you're presenting to Me, are they needs or wants? Is what you're praying for required? Is it necessary for life? Is it something a relationship with Me is leaving you lacking? 

I realize at His feet, I have no needs.
