Lack to SaTiSFieD.

When I was a little girl my Momma use to say to me that 'I should named you Amy 'MORE'.  Because no matter what she had given me, I always wanted more. I was never satisfied.  So this year my Word is SATISFIED.  This word goes up against who I am naturally.  Over & over in my life the enemy has used this to his advantage to trip me up.  I would get a gift (that I had been waiting for) & not be completely happy with it.  Try & return it for something 'better'.  Or with food, at first I couldn't get full so I would stuff & stuff & never feel as though I was full.  As soon as I figured that the enemy flipped it on me & I began doing the exact opposite & obsessed over everything I put in my mouth & exercised like a maniac in order to feel satisfied with my body.  Another big area was my marriage.  I expect my hubby to meet my needs & fill my tank.

This GAP is called a place of LACK.  Any place of lack is opportunity for God to fill!  Even today there are spaces of lack in my life & this year I have been 'practicing' letting the Lord fill that gap.  So when I need/want more food I ask HIM to fill me up.  Or when I am unsatisfied w/my body, my marriage, my finances, etc.  ...it really is just an opportunity for the God to show up in a SUPER NATURAL way.  And when HE comes to fill it's perfect.  Don't hear me wrong here, it's not always the provision I wanted but it's always, always ultimately for my good & for HIS glory! 
I see the Holy Spirit as being excited when we allow Him in the game!  'He's saying, 'Put me in Coach! I got this!  I'm really good at this!  I know just what you need to do, know, be!'  I'm ready!  Just put me in.  Stop striving.  Just tag me in.'
So what are the places of 'lack' in your season of life?  What areas do you need God to fill?  He has designed this space so you would need Him & experience His perfect, MORE THAN enough provision & be SATISFIED.

Because HE first loved...
