Never Satisfied

“Never Satisfied”
Blessings folk!
Here is a direct, pivotal Word of Proverb.
We see this so much today in man.
We see this so much in us…?
Pro 27:20
Sheol and Abaddon are never satisfied,
and never satisfied are the eyes of man.
ESV
Sheol…the place of the dead…is never satisfied.
It desires more dead.
Abaddon…the angelic king of the bottomless pit…is never satisfied.
Rev 9:11
They have as king over them the angel of the bottomless pit.
His name in Hebrew is Abaddon, and in Greek he is called Apollyon.
ESV
Sheol and Abandon are Death and Destruction.
Pro 27:20
Just as Death and Destruction are never satisfied,
so human desire is never satisfied.
NLT
So are the eyes of unregenerate man.
They are never satisfied.
Human desire wants more.
Enough is never enough.
The “wanter” is perverted and out of control.
As seen in the apocryphal answer that Father Rockefeller gave to the question of “how much money is enough?”
He responded, “one dollar more!”
This “never satisfied” consumes and destroys.
It robs one of satisfaction.
It robs one of enjoying that which one has.
It kills.
It steals.
It destroys.
Hummm….
Jesus has come to give something better…
John 10:10
The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy.
I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.
ESV
Are you living Life in the Lord?
Or…
Are you “living” a life that will never be satisfied?
