Better than this life.



Psalm 63:2–5

I have seen you in the sanctuary and beheld your power and your glory.

Because your love is better than life, my lips will glorify you.

I will praise you as long as I live,
and in your name I will lift up my hands.

I will be fully satisfied as with the richest of foods; — with singing lips my mouth will praise you.

When was the last time you were fully satisfied? — After a solid meal? Finishing a long project?

This life is not permanent, and what you think satisfies often leaves you disappointed.

Not so with your God. He gives your soul what you want and need. He promises to satisfy your soul.

Want to feel satisfied?

Hang on to his promises of eternal life, forgiveness, and peace. You won't be disappointed.

David says God's love is "better than life." Do you believe that? Why or why not?

Acts 16:13–15 On the Sabbath we went outside the city gate to the river, where we expected to find a place of prayer. We sat down and began to speak to the women who had gathered there. One of those listening was a woman from the city of Thyatira named Lydia, a dealer in purple cloth. She was a worshiper of God. The Lord opened her heart to respond to Paul’s message. When she and the members of her household were baptized, she invited us to her home. “If you consider me a believer in the...

2 Kings 5:1–3 Naaman was commander of the army of the king of Aram. He was a great man in the sight of his master and highly regarded, because through him the Lord had given victory to Aram. He was a valiant soldier, but he had leprosy. Now bands of raiders from Aram had gone out and had taken captive a young girl from Israel, and she served Naaman’s wife.
