SATISFY
By G. W. S. Ware

Satisfy: Free from doubt or uncertainty.
This is a condition of life no human has ever enjoyed. Adam was nearer it than any one
since, but he went the wrong way to gain it. Satan, through Eve, led him on to find
satisfactuin, and no human has been satisfied since. Job, at one time, has all that life
had to give, but was uneasy about his children, Job 1:5. Solomon tried everything in the
world to bring satisfaction to himself, but after the experiment he cried out for all to
hear him: "All is vanity" or a feeding on the wind, Eccl. 1:14. God through
Solomon shows man his condition. If he had everything he could desire, yet man is rushing
on and away from God, Vainly trying to satisfy himself, which is an impossibility. God
through David has a message to every human who will accept it, the only possible way to
become satisfied, Ps. 17:15.
Revelers, with their joyous or clamorous merriment, who debar themselves from the
presence of God, Gal. 5:21; do not knowing what satisfaction is, for their future prospect
is lined with outer darkness, which will engulf them, never to be satisfied again, hence
never experience what it is. Christ shall be satisfied, Is. 55:11, but Satan cannot be,
Heb. 10:27. God tells all who love him to be content, for he will never leave or forsake
them, Heb. 13:5. With this no one can be a pessimist. Not being satisfied with that which
is right, is a invitation to the enemy of man to come in and destroy all chances of ever
being satisfied. Not being satisfied with God, is the mother of all sin; for Satan began
it the instant he was dissatisfied with his position in heaven. To be dissatisfied with
sin, all sins, is being like God and is the road which leads into a world full of beings
who are satisfied with themselves and everything they find there; not only satisfied, but
gloriously enwrapped in it.
